I work from home on my computer. In my free time at home I enjoy maintaining my website, which requires online research, shopping online, and playing at online casinos. I also do my banking and pay my bills from my computer. So, as you can see, my computer is my livelihood. I can’t afford to lose it to a virus. So I invested in the best anti-virus money could buy. I’m protected, right? Wrong!
My newest computer is only a few months old. It has the latest of everything and lots of gigs on it. It was built from the frame up by my brother, Mike, who does this for a living so I don’t ask questions; I just tell him what I need. My games take up a lot of space, and I need it to be fast and able to handle several web pages to be open at once. So he gave me lots of gigs and I trust him. When I got my new baby home, she was lightening fast! She did everything I could want and then some.
A couple of weeks ago I started getting these pop-ups telling me that I have spyware. What the heck? I have anti-virus protection, the best. How can I have spyware? As you can probably tell, I’m not a computer expert. So I clicked on the pop-up and this cute little box pops up that scans my computer. It’s called SpyMaxx. SpyMaxx tells me that I have these spyware things on it and to get rid of it I have to buy their program. I didn’t get it, so I called my brother.
Here’s what I found out. SpyMaxx is what’s known as a rogue anti-spyware program. That means that SpyMaxx pretends to be a spyware detection and removal program. It tells you that it’s detecting all this spyware and then to remove it you have to pay them. What it is actually doing is telling you that it has found spyware that doesn’t really exist. Then when you pay for it there is really nothing to remove, but they have your money already. And, I found out, once it’s there it is nearly impossible to remove.
Okay, so I didn’t pay for the stuff, why do I care if it’s on my computer? Because SpyMaxx is spyware. It slows down my computer, it won’t let me get to the websites I want to, and it put a trojan virus on my computer that collects my information and sends it to someone who can use it in bad, bad ways. I need this SpyMaxx off of my computer along with all the other bad stuff it put into my system, and I need it off now!
I asked my brother to tell me how to take SpyMaxx off of my computer, and he told me that trying to do it on my own could damage my computer beyond repair. He said to go to SpyZooka. They guarantee to take care of 100% of the spyware and trojans on my computer, among other things. They also guarantee to keep it off. And, it costs less than many of the others who don’t offer this guarantee. So I purchased SpyZooka and couldn’t be happier! If it weren’t for SpyZooka, I would have thrown my computer through the window a week ago. Thanks SpyZooka!
