Comment: Spyware Soft Stop is a Rogue Anti-Spyware.

Spyware Soft Stop installs six rouge files that it then detects and falsely displays as spyware in the scan results seemingly to scare the user into paying for the application. These same six junk files are displayed as spyware with a different name in the next scan.
