SpywareScanner2008 is a new rogue anti-spyware program - a fake spyware remover, which uses scare tactics to persuade the user he is infected and therefore in need of an anti-spyware program. Like most rogues, SpywareScanner2008 uses trojans, such as Zlob or Vundo, to enter the system. Once inside and active, the parasite will flood the user with popups and fake system notifications to "inform" him of an infection. This is false information, used to mislead the user in hopes of getting him to buy SpywareScanner2008's "licensed version".

SpywareScanner2008 is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block it's hompepage using your HOSTS file.
