Spyware-Sweeper.com is Spywarebomb.com

SpywareBomb is a known rogue antispyware.  Domain spywarebomb.com.

Today, a spammer at CNET forums posted "Spyware Sweeper" with domain spyware-sweeper.com

I took the file and found it is also the same as SpywareBomb.

So be warned guys... spyware bomb, spyware sweeper are the same and it is known rogue antispyware program.

See discussion at Calendar of Updates with screenshots.

Update:  Firetrust SiteHound is now blocking spyware-sweeper.com too.  Hats off to Firetrust for fast action after I reported via Firetrust SiteHound program.  Thanks Firetrust. SiteHound users will be safe from these rogue websites.  Users with 3rd party HOSTS file can add spyware-sweeper.com in the hosts file.

Hi Jean,

If you will go to www.dozleng.com/.../index.php, you will find out why Spyware Sweeper by Spyware-sweeper.com is not recommended.  It's flagged by researchers and antivirus vendor, Symantec as rogue antispyware program.  

If you want free antispyware.. here's some freeware antispyware:

1.  Windows Defender by Microsoft. This has real-time protection.

2.  SUPERAntispyware

3.  Ad-Aware SE or Ad-Aware 2007

4.  Spybot Search & Destroy

5.  If you will download and install Google Pack, it has free Spyware Doctor by PC Tools
