Re: False



This is not a newsgroup for Windows security issues. It is a newsgroup for
programming applications using the .NET programming platform.

HELP! What do I need to do to get rid of the following rogue spyware? It
pretends to be genuine by using the Windows Security Shield. It is driving
me
mad and I have tried various anti-spyware systems without success..

The message reads as follows:................................

System Security Center
Help Protect Your PC

System Security Center Alert:

Warning! Spyware files are detected on your computer!

It's highly recommended to scan the system immediately to remove all
dangerous spyware/adware programs.

Spyware gathers your private information without your consent.

This information includes passwords and credit card details, as well as
other sensitive data.

Once installed, spyware keeps track of your surfing habits, which makes it
possible for unsolicited ads and SPAM messages.

Spyware can not be removed by antivirus and firewalls.

These programs are not even able to find evidence of spyware being
installed
on the computer.

Spyware also uses your computer's memory and system resources making your
PC
incredibly slow.

....................................................

Thanks in anticipation.

Richard
