SpyGuarder Explanation

SpyGuarder is a fake cleaner application that pretends to clean your system from infections. SpyGuarder is a serious threat to the stability and security of your system if it resides on your computer. SpyGuarder may be installed onto your system through a Trojan infection such as Zlob or a security hole.

We have found out that SpyGuarder is not much different from rogue anti-spyware programs where they all attempt to get computer users to purchase a full version of the program. SpyGuarder attempts to do this through annoying popups and alert messages that display messages stating you are infected with some type of parasite. SpyGuarder even has it’s own website, SpyGuarder.com. SpyGuarder.com is known to sell the SpyGuarder program. You are urged to stay away from SpyGuarder.com or you run the risk of being infected with rogue applications. SpyGuarder and Spy Guarder cannot be trusted and should be removed from your system before it causes damage.
