Spyware Guard 2008 fake alerts made a lot of action in the last weeks of 2008. This rogue is especially nasty due the fact, that it tries blocking legitimate websites that distribute proper spyware removers. I have warn and warn computer users again not to believe “Windows” popups that suggest downloading and purchasing third party software – this is rarely the case, especially when Windows have a remover of its own. Spyware Guard 2008 and its sibilings Spy Guard 2008 + Spyware Guard 2008 are not legitimate – their company details are fake, and their claims being best removers around are not true.
If you want removal instructions for this crap, we recomend 2-viruses.com guide how to remove Spyware Guard 2008.
