You need to protect your computer with bona fide antispyware application or it may become infected with a rogue antispyware program like Anti Malware Suite. This rogue will use a Trojan horse like Zlob to infect your computer. Once it has weaseled its way into your system, it will systematically try to scare you into buying its product.

Anti Malware Suite will use an icon in your task tray that will display warnings about imaginary malware infections. It may even generate fake security messages that advise you to allow a scan. The results of these methods ultimately lead up to a sales pitch for the full version of the rogue. But the full version is completely useless. It only causes pop-up ads, steals your money, slows down your computer, stifles your Internet connection, and alters your browser settings.
