What is SpyFalcon? SpyFalcon is a rogue antispyware program that produces fake task bar alert messages designed to pursuade the user to download SpyFalcon. The program that produces the fake alert messages can be installed without the user's knowledge by a downloader trojan that exploits a flaw in Windows. It may also download and install SpyFalcon without prompting the user. To stop the fake alert messages, the hidden program that's producing them needs to be removed along with any associated downloader trojans and installers.

- Immediately scan your system a second time with XoftSpySE removing any remaining infections.
SpyFalcon and its trojans should now be completely removed and your system should operate normally.
