Name: PSGuard Category: Trojan Date: 2005-10-17 Dangerous: Yes | PSGuard is a malicious anti-spyware software that performs those actions usually done by trojan horses. It uses a root-kit to keep registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ShudderLTD (with its child keys and values) protected. PSGuard is able to do this by using a well known exploit [difference between Win32 and Native APIs]. Having this nasty corrupt anti-spyware program on your computer makes it insecure, you should deal with it as soon as possible.
