Badware Exterminator
Badware Exterminator is a rogue anti-spyware program that is downloaded onto a vulnerable computer system via a corrupt website called badwareexterminator.com. Badware Exterminator uses the website to run a virus scan and display fake detected threats on the infected computer. Badware Exterminator will then redirect them to a website where a direct payment for the "licensed version" can be done. Do not fall prey to Badware Exterminator's trickery and have the rogue removed immediately.
