AntiSpyCheck - Giving you false checks!

June 13th, 2008 by AndyAtHull

Another day and another rogue! Actually this next one has been out and about for some time now. However it’s starting to be making the rounds recently.

It’s also been a time since we have blogged and brought a rogue to the attention to the general internet community. So I thought I may as well bring this one into the spot light and get more coverage for it so that users like you can be warned or receive assistance for it.

AntiSpyCheck

Going by the name AntiSpyCheck, this rogue is a familiar member of the Zlob Trojan. And it associated, like other rogues, with Estdomains Inc as you can currently see on a whois.

It’s web site location is:

www(dot)antispycheck(dot)com

As with all rogues, the infections that come along with them are hugely annoying and, at the worst of times, can cause serious upset. Not to mention the fact it tries to get your money for purchasing it.

What we suggest is to seek help in our forum or by following our own removal guide for this rogue. All help is free and widely respected from many members of the community.

If that isn’t enough, then why not discuss this rogue in more detail here! Your feedback is appriciated.
