Matt Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 SpyCrush is listed as a Rogue Anti-Spyware Application. It is said to be aggressive and have deceptive advertising.List of rogue anti-malware applications:http://spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites

baker7 Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 (edited) thanks mattmartyMarty:Just FYI for anyone questioning new software any antispyware/antivirus software that you question should be checked with spywarewarrior - this is the first place I check when analyzing HJT logs during my training steps. If it is listed there, I know that it is a rogue, and I take appropriate action - and remove it from the log - If it shows as DELISTED I color it ORANGE and advise the victim/user of its status, and tell them that it is an optional removal.Hope that helpsBrianMalware Trainee Edited July 2, 2007 by baker7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
