SpyZooka helps protect computers against APC Protect.
APC Protect is a rogue security application. The name is intended to inspire confidence however the program itself is a scam. The set-up is intended to mimic legitimate computer protection programs. SpyZooka now offers a free computer scan and downloadable software to remove APC Protect.
Once APC Protect has infiltrated a computer, it will attempt to get users to purchase a “full version” or “License” to ensure the safety of their computer. However, once payment has been rendered, users realize there is no program. Some methods used by APC Protect to encourage users to purchase their software include fake security warnings and pop-ups that occur randomly and are intended to alarm and intimidate the user into purchasing a fake product.
APC Protect comes from the family of security rogues that include TheDefend, IGuardPc, SiteAdware, AntiTroy, AntiKeep, AntiAdd, RESpyWare, REAnti, SecureKeeper, LinkSafeness, AntiAid or SystemFighter. These are essentially all copycats of the same program and are meant to do the same thing, which is swindle computer users out of their hard-earned money.
SpyZooka offers years of experience and the knowledge necessary to keep up with this ever-changing industry. SpyZooka offers up-to-date protection against spyware. Highly regarded for its excellence, SpyZooka remains the only anti-spyware application to offer a 100% spyware removal guarantee.
BluePenguin’s website also offers manual instructions to remove APC Protect. While those who are knowledgeable of computers may initially remove APC Protect, they may not be safe against future invasions. SpyZooka protects now and against future attacks.
“Computer security and optimization is our business,” said Carl Haugen of BluePenguin, “which is why we stand behind our program as 100% effective.”

SUMMARY: SpyZooka warns of rogue software that tricks computer owners into thinking their computer has security problems. Total PC Defender mimics actual spyware and is a fake program that won’t remove viruses from computers.
Sequim, WA – If you have a computer that suddenly shows windows filled with warnings of security problems and the urgent need to buy an antispyware program, it may be a scam. Carl Haugen, President of BluePenguin Software says, “Total PC Defender mimics actual spyware programs showing a computer user fake security warnings that can scare a user into thinking the computer is infected and tricking the user into purchasing a full version of the software program. This program is a fake and does not show real security warnings or real scan results, nor does it remove viruses from computers.”
Rogue software programs like Total PC Defender may accidentally be downloaded through fake URLs that pop up at the top of search engine results, redirecting you to another page. There will most likely be a ‘Click to fix’ button, prompting you to give money, which ends up being an illegitimate company selling a product that is not protecting your computer.
“Once installed, the only way to remove Total PC Defender is to reformat your hard drive or use a legitimate antispyware program like SpyZooka to remove it,” says Haugen. “SpyZooka is a legitimate antispyware program that will detect and protect your computer from such infections.”
