Summary

Antispywarebot is the latest rogue spyware to appear on the internet. These rogue spyware extort money from innocent computer users by pretending to offer them a spyware blocker which will be able to remove various fake spyware infections. Antispywarebot does this by informing the computer use that their system has been infected using fake scan results and pop up windows. Upon scaring the user, Antispywarebot provides them with a solution which will be able to remove these fake scan results. The solution is to purchase the fully licensed version of this spyware blocker.

Please note that manual removal does not always work and you are only advised to use these spyware removal instructions if you are comfortable in doing so (disclaimer).

Remove the following processes:

Remove the following registry values:

Remove the following files and directories:

To remove Antispywarebot automatically, we recommend that you try out Malwarebytes Anti-Malware or SUPERAntiSpyware. Both are free spyware blockers which have very effective detection rates.

If you have another spyware blocker installed then you can also use it to perform a full scan. If the spyware blocker does not detect anything then I suggest you try using Malwarebytes Anti-Malware or SUPERAntiSpyware.

1. Download and install a Spyware Removal program of your choice.

2. Once installation is complete, load the Spyware Removal Program and navigate to the scanning section.

3. Most if not all Spyware Removal programs should give you the choice to either do a smart scan or a full scan. Choose the full scan.

4. Wait until the scan is complete. It may take as much as an hour depending on how many files you have on your computer.

5. Once the scan is complete, look through each ‘threat’ which the spyware removal program detected and remove/quarantine them immediately.
