Security researchers alert users that the 'Spyware virus may have infected your operating system' message on the Systemholdings.com pop-ups is caused by adware on your computer. The Systemholdings.com pop-ups may be facilitated by an adware-powered browser extension that was installed along with a free application via the 'Express' or 'Typical' option. The Systemholdings.com adware may write a registry entry in Windows to run at boot-up and open a tab in your browser to show messages on Systemholdings.com. Moreover, users infected with adware may be presented with pop-ups by Breakthroughit.info that link back to the Systemholdings.com domain. Both domains are used by adware developers to scare users with pop-up windows that closely resemble the BSoD screens that the Windows OS generates in case of a critical system error. Security researchers remind users that the BSoD messages on Systemholdings.com and Breakthroughit.info are fake, and you should not call the 1-844-521-0864 phone number to receive help. Users may try to close the message boxes on Systemholdings.com but will not succeed because the website is coded to show them whenever you hover over or click on the Systemholdings.com surface. Users should not call 1-844-521-0864 in order to avoid contact with crooks that may try to convince you to grant them remote access to your system and repair your OS. The crooks associated with Systemholdings.com and Breakthroughit.info may ask users to turn off their Windows Firewall and install a remote desktop application that can allow them to steal your data and log-in details. Computer users who experience pop-ups by Breakthroughit.info and Systemholdings.com may want to install a trustworthy anti-malware shield to protect their system and remove adware.
