SystemDocter 2006-is this a real or fake company getting you to buy antivirus software?

Question

Does anyone know how I can contact them. Anyway I asked a question earlier about my homepage getting hijacked and critial error messges and basically reading similar Q&A of others, I was able to understand my own question. Now, the PC Guy mentioned something about Ziob etc etc and to use a company called)I think No More Spy). However I subscribed to systemdocter 2006 and the problem persists and I can't get any help of these guys. Does anybody know or have had to deal with customer service at the systemsdocter 2006 company. Or arte they even legit....Whats the best way to get rid of my hijacked homepage(trojan virus) and the critical error message and also which would be the best antivirus or antispyware to use....This has been a frustrating and terrible experience for me but I am thankful to all you fellow Ask Yahoo users for your information and teamwork...GO YAHOO!!!

Answer 1

IT'S FAKE!

It gets a red rating (dangerous) in Siteadvisor, (5 red downloads) which means it's a probably fake.

Answer 2

Always check the rogue list(link below) before downloading any antispyware software.If the software you are downloading is on this list then it is spyware itself

If you have not already scanned your comp with spybot do that now .Update it and then run it so it gets rid of all the spyware and trojans in safe mode

If you still have question or problems let the experts take a look at whats happening on your computer.Visit the HijackThis Logs and Analysis forum.

Answer 3

just delete it



SystemDoctor 2006 is a rogue anti-spyware application that gets installed by Spyware/malware without asking for permission. This infection can also be accompanied by other malware that changes your desktop background to a fake warning or by Trojans that issue fake taskbar security alerts. These are all used as a scare tactic to have you purchase their commercial software. A screenshot of this program can be seen below.
