It changes the desktop background to a fake warning message, forbids access to some web sites and may even block any attempts to connect to the Internet. The parasite can also disable some Windows essential components and tools such as the System Restore and the Date and Time application. In some cases SpySheriff may attempt to delete certain installed anti-spyware programs, crash the system and display bogus system error reports. This malware is able to prevent the user from uninstalling. It can also restore its removed components. SpySheriff automatically runs on every Windows startup.
