Rogue anti-malware programs are designed to scare you into purchasing fake software.

Google malware refers to the "Google has detected" malware program. This fictitious malware program is generated by the rogue anti-malware program, System Protector. Thus, the good news is that your computer is not infected with Google malware. The bad news is that your computer is infected with System Protector. You can remove the rogue anti-malware program, which slows the computer and launches fake system scans and malware warnings. The removal process applies to Windows Vista and 7 operating systems.
