Important in this quest is to ensure that you are up-to-date with the latest malware applications out there.
What they are, what they do, how you can prevent infiltration and how you can ensure the integrity of your system remain intact.
The newest rogue anti-spyware application is Defense Center. And no this application will not be able to assist you any way, shape or form. This program is dubious and was designed to have harmful functionality.
Defense Center is also referred to as DefenseCenter.
Defense Center enters into a computer system via a Trojan application, which sneaks into the system via security exploits, such as spam emails or it can be installed by another malware.
Defense Center generates fictitious system warning alert messages, generates fake scan reports and fake error messages about the "infection" on the computer system. All of this is aimed at ensuring the user of the computer system is coerced and tricked into purchasing the "full" version of Defense Center software.
Defense Center should not be trusted or purchased as it is rogue anti-spyware software and should be deleted immediately upon detection!
Now, what do you do if you suspect you have this nefarious application embedded within your system?
I suggest you download a fully functional antispyware application, one that is accredited and legitimate! Scan you system, and should your system be infected, you will then be given instructions on how to remove Defense Center and all its components!
Once it has been established that your system is in fact infected, you should simply follow the removal instructions. Computer safety has never been easier!
