What is Antispyware 3000?

Antispyware 3000 is a new rogue anti-spyware program – a fake spyware remover, which uses trojans, such as Zlob or Vundo, to enter the system. These trojans are typically disguised as Video ActiveX codecs and exploit browser security holes to enter the system. Antispyware 3000, much like any other rogue, uses disinformation to trick the user into purchasing it’s "licensed version".

Once inside and active, Antispyware 3000 will flood the user with popups and fake system notifications, supposedly to inform him of an infection or multiple infections present on the system.

Regardless of whether your system is infected or not, however, Antispyware 3000 will claim the same, and provide falsified system scan reports.

Antispyware 3000 is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block it’s homepage using your HOSTS file.
