How to remove System Protector?
What is System Protector?
System Protector is a rogue anti-spyware program – a fake spyware remover, which relies on disinformation to trick the user into purchasing it’s “licensed version”. This parasite typically uses trojans, such as the notorious Zlob, to enter the system.
Once inside and active, System Protector will flood the user with popups and fake system notifications, supposedly to inform him of an infection or multiple infections present on the system. It will also perform fake system scans, which return greatly exaggerated reports, oftentimes containing false positives. All of this is done to create the illusion that the user’s system is infected and is therefore in need of a spyware remover.
System Protector is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block it’s homepage using your HOSTS file.
