From: darfun on 7 May 2010 00:19 Antispyware Soft reality: is a rogue anti-spyware program from the same family as Antivirus Soft and Antivirus Suite. Just like its predecessors, AntispywareSoft reports false system security threats to make you think that your computer is infected with malicious software. Usually, this fake program is promoted through the use of Trojans or other malware, but it can be also installed on your computer without your consent and knowledge through software vulnerabilities.

One can never be sure what else was modified on the system and thus can never be certain that the malware was removed entirely. cu 59cobalt -- "If a software developer ever believes a rootkit is a necessary part of their architecture they should go back and re-architect their solution." --Mark Russinovich
