SpywareSheriff, a new rogue antispyware application that is starting to infect a lot of users. This particular infection is harder to remove than other variants such as SpywareQuake and SpyFalcon. This is because it uses a lot of random names for the files. It is, though, easy to tell when you are infected with this malware.
