BlockWatcher (Block Watcher) is a dangerous rogue security application. BlockWatcher comes from the group of hackers that created and marketed the numerous members of the FakeSmoke family. BlockWatcher uses the same devious tactics to extort money from unsuspecting computer users as its family members. BlockWatcher is unable to detect or remove parasites despite the several fake popup messages that it displays attempting to warn computer users of detected threats. In addition to those popups, BlockWatcher will attempt to scan the computer it is installed on only to return falsified results. BlockWatcher is an un-trusted security program.
BlockWatcher is a clone of other fake security programs such as WiniFighter, WiniShield, SaveKeep, SaveKeeper, SoftSafeness, TrustWarrior, WiniGuard, SecurityFighter, Security Soldier, SecureVeteran, Secure Warrior, Trust Cop, Safe Fighter, Trust Soldier, Virus Protector, BlockDefense, Security Soldier, TrustNinja, SaveDefense, SystemCop.
