SpywareQuake

This website was created to help users remove SpywareQuake from their systems. Please note that we are not associated with SpywareQuake.com or its software.

SpywareQuake is a rogue anti-spyware program that was previously known as SpyAxe, SpyFalcon, SpywareStrike, SpyDawn and is now known as SpyLocked in its latest version. The information provided on its website about the company's location, business partnerships and the awards it has received is all bogus.

SpywareQuake attempts to scare users into downloading and purchasing the commercial version of its anti-spyware product by displaying fake pop-up alert messages. The pop-up messages appear as taskbar balloon pop-ups that warn the user about virus activity when no virus activity exists. These pop-ups are produced by a hidden adware program which is installed by a Trojan horse, most likely in the form of a drive-by-download when visiting certain websites.
