Loading your "FAQ: Remove SpyHunter" videoSpyHunter is software that is considered malware, although it is not strictly speaking malware, the techniques it uses to gain new customers are borderline legal. Indeed, when this software is installed, it occupies a large part of your resources, and constantly displays fictitious alerts about supposed invasions of your computer. It advertises itself as an antivirus that will help you detect malware. It scans your computer, but (strangely) finds viruses all the time! It will then try to convince you to pay for the full software, trying to scare you with alarming and garish alerts about possible infections (more than questionable by the way). And to top it off, SpyHunter can even install unwanted or dangerous adware, malware, or toolbars on you!
Caution : Don't be fooled, these are fake alerts created to scare you and get you to buy the full software!
