CrisysTecSentry
CrisysTecSentry is a rogue anti-spyware parasite that can infiltrate your system via trojans and browser security holes. After installing itself into your hard drive, CrisysTecSentry starts to generate numerous pop-up security notifications, prompting you to check your computer for spyware with the free CrisysTecSentry trial version.
Clicking on any of these pop-ups will result in the start of CrisysTecSentry and a counterfeit “free” scan. The reports of such a scan tend to be falsified and exaggerated. After showing the false report, CrisysTecSentry prompts you to purchaseits “full” version to fix the detected “errors”.
