System Doctor is classified as Rogue Anti-Spyware. After infecting a user’s system, it proceeds to scare its victim into buying the “product” by displaying fake security messages, stating that your computer is infected with spyware and only System Doctor can help you to remove it after you download the trial version. As soon as the victim downloads System Doctor trial version, it pretends to scan your computer and shows a grossly exaggerated amount of non-existent errors. Then, System Doctor offers to buy the full version to fix these false errors. If the user agrees, System Doctor does not only fix the errors, but it also takes the user’s money and may even install additional spyware into the victim’s computer.
