Description		A Fake Anti Spyware is software that purports to scan and detect malware or other problems on the computer, but which attempts to dupe or badger users into purchasing the program by presenting the user with intrusive, deceptive warnings and/or false, misleading scan results. They spuriously warn users that their computers have been infected with spyware, directing them to purchase programs which do not actually remove spyware or worse, may add more spyware of their own It typically uses aggressive, deceptive advertising.
Summary		AntiMalwareGuard is a recently released rogue Ant Spyware program. AntiMalwareGuard makes its way to the system by using Trojan's, such as Zlob, which distinguish themselves as browser video codecs. The Trojan's most important function in promoting rogues is its campaign of disinformation: the user if flooded with popup and fake system notifications, which kindly inform him that he is infected. This information is invariably false, but creates the reason for the user to purchase a spyware remover to dispose of the problem.
