SecureDefense

A new rogue antivirus app demanding attention is SecureDefense, responsible for fleecing countless consumers out of their hard earned money. Cleverly distributed and marketed, it is easy to fall victim to this nonsense rogue. Originating from the same family as the Wini rogue and IronProtector, it shouldn’t be taken lightly. This threat poses a serious danger to any infected PC, and those who value the health and security of their system should eradicate SecureDefense off their PC immediately.

SecureDefense employs the same type of scare tactics expected of any rogue. After the SecureDefense infection takes root on your PC, you can expect to be bombarded by faked scan reports and many bogus alerts about system vulnerability and infections. These fake reports will read as follows:

“Security Center Alert!
Infiltration Alert!
Your computer is being attacked by an Internet Virus. It could be a password-stealing attack, a trojan-dropper or similar.
Do you want SecureDefense to block this attack?”

“Spyware Alert!
Your computer is infected with spyware. It could damage your critical files or expose your private data on the Internet. Click here to register your copy of SecureDefense and remove spyware threats from your PC.”

Users who are infected with SecureDefense will be unable to view any other legitimate webpage, as part of SecureDefense’s attack on the PC is to hijack the Internet browsers as well. The following message will be displayed when trying to open a safe and reputable website:

“Reported Insecure Browsing: Navigation blocked
Insecure Internet activity. Thread of virus attack
Due to insecure Internet browsing your PC can easily get infected with viruses, worms and trojans without your knowledge, and that can lead to system slowdown, freezes, and crashes. Also insecure Internet activity can result in revealing your personal information. To get full advanced real-time protection for PC and Internet activity, register SecureDefense. We recommend you to protect your PC now continue safe Internet Browsing.”

Aside from the terribly annoying symptoms of a SecureDefense infection, it also poses serious risk to the system and may cause permanent damage. Get rid of SecureDefense in order to gain control of the system again, and do not make the mistake of underestimating this rogue’s vitriol.
