Dont not go on or accept any downloads from www.systemdoctor.com
its a rogue website and i have reported it on the phising filter.
it tryed to trick me but i did'nt fall for it. its safe if you have IE6 and
IE7 because this blocks automatic downloading of it.
just make sure you dont get fooled by the fake messages it pops up.

It's nice that you wanted to warn people, but next time don't post live
URLs to bad websites. Instead, munge it as I have done above.

A good place to check for rogue antispyware is on MVP Eric Howes' site here:
