I have spent most of the last couple of days sorting out some particularly nasty spyware infections.

Quite literally there have been clients queueing to get their machines cleaned of this little bit of nastiness.

It manifests itself as a spyware scanner called ‘System doctor’ and seems to perform a scan of your PC, resulting in many ‘infected’ files – it also changes your desktop wallpaper to a screen saying something about files not being deleted from your PC.

DO NOT BE FOOLED – this is a simple spyware infection and can be removed using freely available tools!

In our case, the clients involved ALL had contracts covering these types of eventualities and the removal procedures cost them nothing more than their machines being inaccessible for an hour or so.

We offer a simple clean-up service for £75 one off fee, a small price to pay for safeguarding your PC/Laptop

This spyware seems to be infecting peoples machines from legitimate websites so make sure you don’t agree to anything trying to run on your PC unless you know what it is.

Here’s the shameless marketing bit:
