Hi ..

WinSpywareProtect, or Win Spyware Protect, is a rogue anti-spyware application designed to scare you into purchasing WinSpywareProtect's full version. WinSpywareProtect is usually downloaded and installed via ZLOB/MediaAccess Codec installer from an adult site. Once you're infected, the Zlob Trojan will display misleading warning messages that pop up on your Taskbar. WinSpywareProtect warning messages claim that your computer is infected with dangerous parasites in an attempt to trick you into purchasing WinSpywareProtect's commercial version. In addition, WinSpywareProtect may generate annoying popup advertisements that may cause unstable system performance. WinSpywareProtect program can be difficult to remove manually, and will continue to try to recreate itself.


If its the same application as this here is a wee guide for its removal Check This Out
