Secret Service is a rogue anti-spyware application emanating from the same developers of another rogue spyware remover called Crusader Antivirus. Secret Service is typically promoted through browser hijacking techniques or through affiliated trojans infiltrating the system via security exploits, all without informed consent from the user. Once active, Secret Service displays fictitious and often grossly exaggerated infection results, along with pop-up advertisements prompting the user to purchase and download the fake spyware remover Secret Service in order to combat these imaginary threats.
