Well, let me attempt to make that discernment a little easier for you.
AV Defender is one of the many rogue and dubious applications, which is batting for the rogue team and scoring many hits!
AV Defender is the latest in scams! Pretending to be a legitimate spyware remover, this application has one primary objective: to coerce its victims into purchasing the licensed version of AV Defender.
AV Defender doesn't deviate much from the typical and widely practiced tactics of PC parasite infiltration. AV Defender tends to use affiliated backdoor Trojan infections, or via a fake codec the user has installed onto their system.
Also referred to as AVDefender, this fake security tool may in fact hail from similar rogue applications, being an improved upon version of such type software.
Once inside a designated system, AV Defender will obscurely create hundreds of fake malware entities in the infiltrated system. Once this is done, AV Defender will then "detect" these dummy files and ensure the unsuspecting user, you, think it's high time you removed all the reported malware.
AV Defender malicious trialware usually runs each time you log onto Windows and will display its fake system scanner that claims to find a variety of corrupted dangerous files.
As a well-practiced tactic, AV Defender will have you believe that in order to protect your Operating System against these "detections", you will need to install AV Defender's full commercial version which of course demands payment.
Should you install AV Defender's licensed software, you will soon realize that it's not only worthless in terms of malware removal, but it compromises any computer systems' performance and will eventually slow down the computer considerably.
Word to the wise: one should remove the AV Defender rogue anti-spyware application as soon as it has been detected.
