Windows System Defender Description:

Windows System Defender refers to one of the most rapidly expanding families of rogue anti-spywares that contains such rogues as Windows Enterprise Defender, Windows PC Defender, Windows Protection Suite, Windows System Suite, Malware Catcher and many more. Windows System Defender does not install like a normal program does; it infiltrates a computer secretly and unnoticeably for the potential victim. This stealthy intrusion mode is enabled via the use of trojans that bypass authentication and stay undetected all the way through the penetration procedure. Having trespassed, Windows System Defender triggers numerous ads (pop-ups, scanners, system tray alerts etc.) and hijacks the web browser to further keep redirecting it to its own sites one of which is WindowsSystemDefender.com (please see the website snapshot below). By displaying its fake alerts, Windows System Defender tries to convince you that you’ve got lots of infections on your machine that need to be quickly attended to. Then, Windows System Defender will not fail to recommend you to install and buy its licensed version for the sake of your computer system stability. However, purchasing Windows System Defender is a bad idea because it won’t clean your system at best. In the worse case, Windows System Defender may endanger your system stability by playing havoc with the files and the System Registry. So it’s highly recommended to uninstall Windows System Defender rogue once it exposes itself on your computer.
