Information about Advanced Defender
Advanced Defender is a rogue anti-spyware which may mislead unaware PC users by its friendly name and trickily created design. In fact, Advanced Defender is even more sophisticated than most of its counterparts like Personal Protector and is well deserved to be blamed for making the infected system disordered.
Advanced Defender infiltrates into a potential victim’s PC through Trojans or browser hijacking techniques. Additionally it is known to create the fake malware files where the most of them are these:
c:\WINDOWS\certofsystem.exe,
c:\WINDOWS\explorers.exe,
c:\WINDOWS\microsoftdefend.dll,
c:\WINDOWS\regp.exe,
c:\WINDOWS\secureit.com,
c:\WINDOWS\spoos.exe,
c:\WINDOWS\system32\winscent.exe
As a result, Advanced Defender rogue anti-spyware starts generating fake popup ads and triggering system scanners which you will notice once they appear. All these messages report about detection of certain threats which in reality are the same invented files of AdvancedDefender.
The main reason of showing all these infections “detected” is trying to make PC users concerned about their Pcs security. The scam finally offers to remove them from the system but before that it asks paying a certain fee. Advanced Defender displays hundreds of annoying alerts and will continue until will not be removed from the machine. Keep in mind that it “detects” only imaginary infections, besides, some of them are executables of legitimate anti-malware programs. By doing this, Advanced Defender seeks only to protect itself and mislead its victims into removing them, so don't follow its suggestions. Instead of that, use a reputable anti-spyware and scan your PC for malware. Don’t waste any time if it happens for you to detect Advanced Defender, just use the removal guide written below and delete Advanced Defender with all its malicious files.
