Best Answer

You may be referring to Dr. Guard virus which is another fake anti-spyware targeted at gullible web users. The virus will make it appear that your PC is infected with spyware so you'll be directed to the free downloadable trial version of Dr. Guard. Most web users will be tempted to click that 'download' button without thinking of the possible consequences. Once inside, this fake anti-spyware will attack your Windows registry in order to gain full control of your computer the moment you boot it up. If your computer is infected with this virus, you can automatically remove it by running a scan to check the infection.
