A Brand of "scareware" that just appears on a victims computer often with the victim doing nothing to provoke it. It installs a program and states that certain viruses are infecting a victims computer that actually aren't. Eventually causes the system to freeze and crash and cancels out any antivirus software that maybe on the persons PC. It also pesters you into paying up to $50 for them to stop bombarding you with error messages. The software it just fucks up the system if the person purchases it.
With criminals injecting Malware Defense into victims computers, protective software isn't safe anymore.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
