I don't know if these rogue anti-spyware/spyware pushers are getting desperate, or they think no one will notice, but super rogue Razespyware, which earned a place on the top 10 rogue anti-spyware of 2005, has a new very dirty and very deceptive trick to frighten users into paying for the software.

I read where someone called these apps ransomware, which is quite appropriate given their behavior. SunbeltBLOG has posted screenshots and an explanation of this trick, along with some information about who might be behind it.
