August 23rd, 2006 by AndyAtHull

…Then wonder no more!

Wephelper, a well know security researcher, has made a new page that lists many fake Desktop Warnings you may get when you have Spyware.

Most of the warnings listed are from rogue programs that trick you into buying their product and bascilly commiting fraud!

This list is a usefull one. If you ever want to learn for future referance, then this is a must see page.
