ErrorSweeper is a rogue anti-spyware program released January 7, 2008. This program is a clone of RegClean – another scam released January 7. It is, to be more precise, a rogue performance optimizer – something that removes corrupt files, registry errors etc. In reality, of course, it is a simple scam. ErrorSweeper uses falsified scan reports to get you to buy the full version of the program.
ErrorSweeper must be downloaded and installed manually. When active, the program gives you the option to perform a scan, which produces a falsified and exaggerated report, in hopes of intimidating you into buying the full version, which is no more functional than the trial.
ErrorSweeper’s homepage suggests that the program was made by the same people who gave us RegClean that same day: the website’s structure is similar and both have the same feeling of randomness. It also has the same ridiculous logo, which assures us that there is no adware or spyware bundled with the trial version of ErrorSweeper, something I failed to comprehend since all it does is cause suspicion.There is no contact information here either – a clear give-away of the program’s scammy nature.
ErrorSweeper is a scam and should be treated as such: do NOT download or buy it and block errorsweeper.com using your HOSTS file. Note that rogue anti-spyware program removal tends to be a difficult task to perform.
