Spyware Quake review

Spyware Quake is a corrupt anti-spyware program illegally installed to user computers by dangerous trojans, through malicious advertisements and via certain exploits. This application is not only a weak spyware remover, but also a clone of the infamous SpyAxe, SpywareStrike and SpyFalcon risks.

We have carefully tested Spyware Quake on several computers including absolutely clean machines and PCs infected with spyware and adware parasites. Test results revealed that although the program does not produce false positives and really finds some malicious parasites, it cannot detect most threats and is definitely unable to protect user privacy and system security. Full System Scan performed on a regular modern computer storing hundreds of gigabytes of various data does not take more than 2 minutes. The program does not check all the files, but searches only for known malware, which signatures are in its spyware definitions database. Quick Scan requires even less - only 2 seconds! As you know, currently, there are no such spyware remover capable of thoroughly checking the system so quickly. This means that Spyware Quake cannot be trusted.

The application refuses to remove any parasites it finds and asks to register and purchase the full version. Some Spyware Quake components like Active Guard, the real-time monitor, are also disabled.

The program is illegally distributed with the help of dangerous parasites, malicious advertisements and certain exploits. In our opinion, Spyware Quake's vendor and its affiliates must be held fully responsible for such issues. We have already received user complaints stating that their computers are infected with the SpywareQuake parasite, which displays fake warning messages, downloads the corrupt spyware remover and hijacks the web browser.

Spyware Quake is a clone of SpyAxe, SpywareStrike and SpyFalcon. It has a resembling interface and consists of terribly similar components.

The official web site is www.spywarequake.com.

DO NOT buy this product! AVOID Spyware Quake at all costs!

I was infected this this very thing myself, Spy sweeper took care of it though. It really gets on my nerves how people USE MALWARE to ADVERTISE ANTI-MALWARE, and very poor ones at that. Not only should this product be avoided, but should be removed from the market alltogether.

I work in a computer repair shop in Lincoln, Nebraska and we have seen a sudden up tick in the number of people infected with a new variant of the SpyFalcon spyware infection. While the basic infection is the same, there are a few new files to worry about. We have a free removal tutorial posted at http://www.schrockinnovations.com/removespyfalcon.php, but suddenly people started reporting that upon restarting their computers they were becoming reinfected. We have since found that two additional files are being installed now that were not before. We updated the fixsf.zip removal tool in the tutorial to include these files. Good luck and please post back here and let us know if you have any problems getting it removed. http://www.schrockinnovations.com http://www.thorschrock.com
