Antispam Cyber Privacy is a potentially unwanted program^[1] that is presented as a useful tool that can protect users' online privacy by deleting cookies, browser history, and checking for insecure passwords, as well as other items. While many might think that the app is useful due to these features, it is important to note that it uses misleading tactics to make users purchase its full license.

The scan uses typical scare tactics to make consumers believe that their computer issues (in this case, online privacy issues) – they are shown thousands of issues that allegedly need to be fixed. However, the picked-up items are mere browser history entries that do not pose any harm. Once users want to delete the seemingly private information that is presented to them, they are explained that they are using Antispam Cyber Privacy Trial and that they should purchase a full version before they can delete cookies, internet history, and other online traces.

While Antispam Cyber Privacy can be found on its official website, it is most usually ends up on users' machines without asking for direct permission. This is because software bundling is often used to promote such apps, so they rarely notice the point of entry. Additionally, users might also install the app after seeing an attractive or deceptive advertisement on various websites.

During the installation Antispam Cyber Privacy changes a variety of Windows system settings (to delete tracers of these and similar modifications on Windows systems automatically, we recommend using FortectIntego). For example, it creates a scheduled task to show popups that remind users to buy a license for the program.

Once the installation process is complete, the Antispam Cyber Privacy virus performs a full system scan, which identifies the alleged privacy issues. It also displays used profiles, passwords, and other personal data. Therefore, the program essentially can read all your personal information that you keep on your PC.

Even those who would want to delete the alleged traces, they would not be able to, as it turns out, Antispam Cyber Privacy Trial is not a trial at all, as it does not provide any functions apart from displaying thousands of fake entries. Trials are meant to be used for users to experience the app functionality, not to mislead them into buying a useless application. Thus, do not waste your money and perform Antispam Cyber Privacy removal instead.

In most cases, users install all sorts of suspicious apps unintentionally – tech forums, Reddit, and other community platforms are flooded with complaints about seemingly invisible infiltration of various adware/malware programs.
