SpySheriff Description:

SpySheriff (also known as Spy Sheriff) is yet another fake anti-spyware application. Judging by its behaviour, SpySheriff is only fit to drill its way into the compromised PCs and then trick the unsuspecting victims into registering its non-existent full version. The methods applied by SpySheriff to gain income involve issuing fabricated popup alerts notifying the victims about infections exposed as a result of scanning the computer. These pop-ups are typically entitled “SpySheriff Control Panel” and tells you that the trial version of SpySheriff has limited functionality and therefore you should include the “threat removal feature” by purchasing SpySheriff commercial software. So much for the trickery. In addition, SpySheriff will consume so much of your CPU while operating that your PC will gradually get unbearably slow. SpySheriff will also limit your access to PC security websites. To sum up, SpySheriff is a program that is completely incompatible with normal PC performance. So get rid of SpySheriff once you detect this pest on your computer.
