Windows PC Defender

Windows PC Defender Description

Windows PC Defender is a fake security application that uses fake security threat alerts to make computer users think that their computer is infected with parasites.

Windows PC Defender is usually offered as a solution to the notifications but is not effectively able to rid any system of computer parasites.

Windows PC Defender comes from the same family of rogue applications as Windows Additional Guard, OmegaAntivir and Ultimate System Guard. Windows PC Defender can be download and installed through the use of a computer Trojan horse.
