Spy-blocker.com

Posted: July 18, 2011

ScreenshotDespite all Spy-blocker.com's protests to the contrary, Spy-blocker.com isn't the legitimate anti-spyware software website that Spy-blocker.com pretends to be, but it is, in fact, part of a growing ring of sites that sell rogue anti-spyware programs as the real deal. The rogue anti-spyware products that are sold by Spy-blocker.com and its cousins have no real anti-spyware features, but SpywareRemove.com research team has found that these programs create fake infection warnings as a poor substitute for real security. Even a fleeting visit to Spy-blocker.com should be considered dangerous, since Spy-blocker.com may exploit drive-by-download scripts to install Spy Blocker or another rogue anti-spyware application onto your PC by force.

Having Your Radar Up Against Spy-blocker.com's Fake Marketing Assaults

Spy-blocker.com sounds proud of selling the dysfunctional software product SpyBlocker 2011, but SpyBlocker is nothing to heap praises upon – in fact, SpyBlocker 2011 is a clone of other rogue anti-spyware programs, just as Spy-blocker.com is also a copy of other websites that sell similarly worthless products. Like a real software company, Spy-blocker.com tries to look as though Spy-blocker.com has active customer support and a history of praise, but its actual response to customer complaints is a wall of silence, and Spy-blocker.com has a poor reputation with impartial website-verifying agencies.

However, SpywareRemove.com malware research team has found that Spy-blocker.com's purchasing system is perfectly functional and that Spy-blocker.com will be happy to take your money if, for some reason, you decide to purchase SpyBlocker 2011. Since SpyBlocker can't remove spyware and will attack your computer with fake infection warnings, buying it is never recommended. If your credit card has been exposed to Spy-blocker.com, the safest thing to do for your bank account is to cancel the card to prevent Spy-blocker.com from making any more charges.

Other dangers that you may experience while Spy-blocker.com products are on your computer, can include browser hijacks that redirect you to hostile websites, problems using security programs and altered Windows settings that reduce your PC security.

Tracing Through Spy-blocker.com's Roots in Rogue Anti-Spyware Software

Even though Spy-blocker.com looks like an independent software website, its real origins can be traced back to other fraudulent websites that market similar rogue anti-spyware programs. Some of the websites that are related to Spy-blocker.com that should be equally shunned include Defenderunlimited.com, Albinosdefender.com, Personal-guard.com, Bogemasecurity.com and Unlimdefender.com.

Each of these websites, like Spy-blocker.com, sells a scamware product that matches the URL and company name that the website uses. Albinos Defender, Personal Guard, Bogema Security, Defender Unlimited and Unlimited Defender are all examples of Spy-blocker.com SpyBlocker 2011 clones that are sold in the same fraudulent manner. You may also see these rogue anti-spyware programs referred to by other variant names that SpywareRemove.com malware research team has also seen, such as with or without the '2011' suffix and with or without an 'AntiVirus' suffix.

In all cases, these websites and rogue security programs should be considered to be just as hostile as Spy-blocker.com and its products. Top-quality anti-malware software should be used to remove any Spy-blocker.com-related infection, since Registry changes and other advanced infection components are difficult to remove by hand.
