How to remove WinSpyKiller?
What is WinSpyKiller?
WinSpyKiller is another of the bunch of rogue anti-spyware parasites to hit the Web in early 2008. Although WinSpyKiller states that it is a legitimate spyware remover, it is a child’s play to notice the obvious: that it is, in fact, another internet scam program. WinSpyKiller is prone to use misleading advertising on its victims in order to make them believe they are using a legit product. This includes massive amounts of spamvertising and even having a very own WinSpyKiller’s website, which is supposedly hosted by a Latvian company, registered somewhere in Bakalakistan, and operated by Martians. Some credibility, we must say.
As soon as users are conditioned into believing into WinSpyKiller legitimacy and install the rogue tool into their computers, the parasite starts a falsified error scan that unveils numerous "threats", which, in fact, have been created by WinSpyKiller itself. If you want to remove these bogus threats, the trap closes: you have to pay up. Fifty dollars. For what? Why for getting royally ripped off, of course. We can only guess that such a deal is not guided towards mentally stable users, so we encourage you to use our WinSpyKiller removal instructions to get rid of this scam once and for all.

WinSpyKiller 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 WinSpyKiller can help you to remove it after you download the trial version. As soon as the victim downloads WinSpyKiller trial version, it pretends to scan your computer and shows a grossly exaggerated amount of non-existent errors. Then, WinSpyKiller offers to buy the full version to fix these false errors. If the user agrees, WinSpyKiller 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.
Some Rogue Anti-Spyware, such as WinSpyKiller, may offer users to buy it after the victim clicks on a banner or a pop-up while surfing the internet. Usually, a Trojan is installed to a victim’s computer after clicking on the advertisement. It then proceeds to download or even install WinSpyKiller, which is another way for Rogue Anti-Spyware to spread itself.
Most of rogue Anti-Spyware, such as WinSpyKiller, is nearly impossible to remove manually.
I have recently become a victim of their very annoying pop ups as well.
They even went to the point of posting pornographic photos as another fake pop up telling me that I “allegedly” had 156 pornographic pictures stored on my hard drive!! I’m glad my son in-law wasn’t around when that one popped up! Has anyone taken legal action against these situations? Does anyone know who is behind it?
