Spyware Protection 2009 is a rogue security program disguised as a helpful, legitimate product. It claims to remove spyware, infections and other security threats by displaying pop-up messages to the user. These claims look very real, but they are deceiving. When you get messages like this, try to exit the window and ignore it.
Innocent people often fall for these scams. Spyware Protection 2009, like most other malicious applications, is designed by hackers whose intent is to take your money. You get absolutely nothing in return. If this becomes installed on your PC, it must be removed to prevent further damage and the installation of additional malware.
A typical scenario with these fake antispyware programs goes like this: You are informed that severe threats are on your PC, and that you should download the free scan. Once done, you are then told that infections are so severe, you must purchase the full version of the product in order to have these threats removed. These applications are not capable of scanning your computer in the first place, so the results displayed to you are fabricated. Spyware Protection 2009 cannot detect or remove anything at all.
If malware like this does get installed on your PC, there will be many warning signs. Endless pop-up ads, a slow running system and browser redirection are a few common signs. You may also notice that spam emails are related to your browsing habits. This is because Spyware Protection 2009 has the ability to collect what you do when you are online, in order to sell this information to third parties, who then send you ads.
The smartest thing you can do is to remove these rogue security programs at once. This will prevent further damage, and prevent more malware from being installed. Manual removals is possible, but not advised unless you are an expert and know exactly what you are doing.
