Software
Although the SpyFalcon spyware infection and its variants (SpySheriff and SpywareQuake) have been plaguing internet users for some time now, demand for assistance in removing the pesky infections.
As internet users surf the web, they may intentionally or unintentionally install the SpyFalcon, SpySheriff, or SpywareQuake programs on their computer. The typical scenario is a pop up advertisement that informs the user that their computer is infected with a spyware infection that must be removed. This is typically a false detection designed to trick the user into installing the SpyFalcon, SpySheriff, or SpywareQuake software on their computer. In fact, SpySheriff, SpywareQuake, and SpyFalcon are the real infections.

Once the programs are installed on a user’s computer, they typically operate for a trial period. After that trial period is expired, the software begins asking the user to purchase it to continue using it. This is where SpyFalcon, SpySheriff and SpywareQuake become a nuisance. All three programs begin popping up alerts from what appears to be the Windows Security Center warning the user that their computer is infected and the only way to remove the infection is by paying for the SpyFalcon / SpywareQuake / SpySheriff software.
If the user elects to pay the $50 price for the software, the pop-ups stop. If the user decides not to pay and attempts to remove the SpyFalcon / SpySheriff / SpywareQuake software they can be shocked to find that while the program appears to be removed, the annoying “you’re infected” pop-up messages are still appearing every 30 seconds or so.
