Malware Bell Description

Spyware Image
Malware Bell 3.2, also known as MalwareBell, is a rogue anti-spyware program. Although Malware Bell appears to have all the makings of a legitimate anti-spyware program, its sole purpose is to use misleading spyware threat reports to trick you into purchasing its full version.

Malware Bell is downloaded and installed onto your computer by a Trojan called Zlob. As soon as Zlob is installed, it will display false error messages which states that your computer has been infected with Trojan.Win32.SystemCrash. Trojan.Win32.SystemCrash is a fake threat added to the false error message, which is used to scare you into making a hasty decision and resort to purchasing the rogue anti-spyware program Malware Bell. Nor Malware Bell or its "spyware threat reports" are to be trusted. Malware Bell should be removed from your system as soon as possible.
