Windows Malware Sleuth

Have you recently noticed any significant changes in the way your computer works? Windows Malware Sleuth is definitely the core of it all. The malicious antispyware can seem to cause numerous dysfunctions, from slow connection speeds to system reconfigurations. No matter what the symptom is, the rogue has only one purpose – to make money. This is why you need to remove Windows Malware Sleuth from the operating system, before it swamps you into the dreadful scam.

There are many probable ways for Windows Malware Sleuth to enter your computer, and you might not even know the exact moment it happens. As a matter of fact, it could have been present in your computer long before you noticed any interference. Once you prompt the installation of this malware, Windows Malware Sleuth launches a completely bogus scanner which processes fake threats found in your computer. This scan is a complete nonsense, and you should not pay any attention to the notifications it sends you. Numerous deceitful pop-ups and security warnings are just elements that help Windows Malware Sleuth force you to believe your computer is infected, when it is not! And you will not be able to stop these notifications until you remove Windows Malware Sleuth from your system.

Malicious rogues are created to extract money from clueless PC users, but it is not the worst thing it could do. Hijackers and third parties can use your credit card data you use to purchase useless software, and apply it in further schemes! To resume to normal daily work and protect your financial security, remove Windows Malware Sleuth, using a ruthless antispyware.

UPDATE

Windows Malware Sleuth is exceptionally dangerous, because it belongs to a notorious rogue family called Rogue.VirusDoctor. You might have heard of its forerunners already, there are such infamous antispyware programs as Windows Trojans Inspector, Windows Attacks Defender, Windows Telemetry Center and so on. The list is endless. So is the list of things Windows Malware Sleuth can do to your system.

Since the main thing on Windows Malware Sleuth's "mind" is money, it will cause a lot of damage to your computer, making you think it was committed by some other infection. As a result, Windows Malware Sleuth expects you to purchase the full version of the program, revealing your credit card information to the third parties. Once you do that, your bank account will be accessible for cyber criminals and before you know it, your money will be gone.

Thus, you must pay no need to whatever Windows Malware Sleuth is telling you, including these fake security notifications:

Warning
Firewall has blocked a program from accessing the Internet
C:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe
is suspected to have infected your PC. This type of virus intercepts entered data and transmits them to a remote server.

Error
Keylogger activity detected. System information security is at risk.
It is recommended to activate protection and run a full system scan.

Warning! Virus Detected
Threat detected: FTP Server
Infected file: C:\Windows\System32\dllcache\wmpshell.dll

All of these messages are false, and they are there only to intensify the impression that you are under attack. You might actually think that whatever Windows Malware Sleuth is trying to instill is true, especially as your executables are blocked and you cannot access Windows Task Manager. But everything is the rogue's doing, and you will do yourself a favor if you remove Windows Malware Sleuth as soon as possible.

If manual removal is not an option for you, you should get yourself a powerful antimalware application that will detect and erase Windows Malware Sleuth along with its components. At the same time you will safeguard your system against similar infections in the future.
