Once installed onto your system, it can initiate a swarm of deadly activity. Bogus pop alerts are a common symptom of registry infection. Browser and desktop settings are altered and manipulated. The software has been known to use spyware to record sensitive information like social security and credit card numbers.

The infection slips into computer through a variety of means. These include:

1. A dangerous website breaching your system through holes in IE or Firefox.

2. Installing an infected multimedia file form the web with a dangerous codec.

3. Installing a dangerous shareware program that had been bundled with spyware and viruses.

Despite strange pop up alerts like - "Warning spyware detected on your computer!", don't believe them.

Clicking on these pop up ads will probably start the fake malware scan. After the scan the virus will attempt to frighten you into installing the software. Do not give these people your financial information.
