SafetyPC
SafetyPC is a fake anti-spyware program that spreads via Trojans. On entering a PC, SafetyPC will generate a system scanner, security alerts and pop-up warnings. The aim of these security notifications is to coerce the victim into purchasing the "full version" of SafetyPC to remove all the purportedly detected malware. Of course all the malware detections made by SafetyPC are fake and the "full version" of this rogueware does not even exist. Users are advised to never waste their money purchasing the useless SafetyPC application.
