AntiSpyStorm
AntiSpyStorm is a rogue anti-spyware parasite that is prone to attack systems via trojans and/or browser security holes. Once inside, AntiSpyStorm proceeds to generate large amounts of security notifications on your desktop. These messages state that your computer has been infected with spyware and you must use AntiSpyStorm to get rid of it.
Then, you are offered a free spyware scan of your hard drive. The report of this scan will contain numerous non-existent threat reports in order to misguide you. After you see the report, you will be offered to purchase AntiSpyStorm to cure your system.
