Spyware

SpySlay is a rogue anti-spyware program that uses deceptive tactics to trick you into purchasing their software. SpySlay pops up a fake security message similar to a Windows notification saying your PC is infected with spyware. This fake message is used to lure you into purchasing, downloading and installing their program to remove the imaginary spyware. Also if you visit SpySlay.com, it will redirect you to systemdoctor.com (System Doctor), which is another known rogue anti-spyware program. Although SpySlay may appear to be harmless, it is a security risk to your computer and it may actually expose you to more security threats by installing other malicious applications.
