Rogue Application Spyware Destroyer

Spyware Destroyer certainly won't destroy spyware! Although the name makes it sound like a legitimate antispyware tool, it's just another fake designed to trick people. Much like the others, it will display aggressive messages informing the user of security threats and infections. To an average user, these messages look very threatening, this is their whole point. They want you to buy their product, which is a complete waste of money.

Spyware Destroyer installs through trojans like Vundo and Zlob. It is commonly picked up when a user downloads freeware, music, p2p programs, or when they visit a questionable website. Like the others, it has the ability to cause a certain level of damage to your PC and personal security. It needs to be removed as soon as you realize it is on your computer.

When a user does fall prey to Spyware Destroyer, they will be informed that many threats exist, too numerous to remove without purchasing the full version of the product. This application cannot scan your computer to begin with, so it certainly can't detect any infections or parasites that may or may not exist. This rogue security program in itself is a threat that must be removed.

Like other fake antispyware programs, this one has many signs that the user will notice. A slow PC, changed home page and browser redirection are common. The incessant pop-up ads alerting the user to threats are another sure sign that you have fallen victim to the hackers that create these malicious programs. Spyware Destroyer is no different – they want your money.

You may decide you want to remove this application manually, but that is not advised unless you really know and understand the process. It is very complex, and requires total eradication of all related files which is very difficult. These files hide from the user, and are sometimes literally impossible to locate.

If you believe Spyware Destroyer or some other rogue security program resides on your PC, click here now for a scan with Spyzooka, the only antispyware product that guarantees 100% removal of all types of infections and parasites with only one scan. It works, or your money back.
