Put regcure and scam into google see what you get. Regcure is one of those
terrible pieces of software which claim to do one thing and do something

usually installed following a muppet clicking on a popup telling them their
security is vulnerable click here to fix it.

I ahve some magic beans for sale, if you want i can get my nigerian auntie
to sell them to you.
