What is a Rogue Registry Cleaner?

Rogue registry cleaners deceive you into thinking they are capable of fixing and cleaning your computer’s registry. Rogue Registry Cleaners use misleading security alerts and bogus registry scans as a method to get you to purchase the full version of the rogue registry cleaner in use.

Running computer scans on your system seem to only detect false or exaggerated system errors. Such system error results pop-up in a “System Alert” message accompanied by a link that conveniently directs you to the purchase page. At this point, you are most likely convinced that this rogue registry cleaner is the solution. In most cases a rogue registry cleaner can continuously charge the user’s credit card and even disable legitimate programs that exist on the system.
