SafetyKeeper description
SafetyKeeper is a rogue anti-spyware program. The name and the user interface present the tool as a legit anti-spyware but Safety Keeper is actually a malware. It’s a copy of SaveKeeper, QuickHealCleaner and several other frauds.
SafetyKeeper runs every time a computer boots and tries to look like it’s a part of Windows operating system. Don’t trust this application and avoid mistaking it for a real thing. Safety Keeper loads falsified security reports and infection warnings urging its victims to pay for using the program. It may also hijack web browser and prevent user from launching real anti-spyware tools.
