What is Spy Fighter?

Spy Fighter is yet another rogue anti-spyware application. Like many similar applications,  Spy Fighter uses deceptive scan methods and states that user’s computer is infected with various infections including malware, adware or similar. As usual, the main goal of such parasites is to scare the user and trick money from him.

Spy Fighter enters the system mainly through trojan viruses or misleading websites that pretends to be an online anti-virus scanners. Once installed and active, Spy Fighter performs fake system scan, it only mimics real anti-spyware scanner, because Spy Fighter itself can’t detect any infections.  After the fake scan, Spy Fighter floods the system with obsessive pop-up windows about various fake infections and suggest to buy a full version of Spy Fighter. It should be already obvious that this is simply a scam. Spy Fighter is an infection itself and should be removed from the system immediately.
