ArmorDefender is only an imitation of a security tool and therefore should not be taken for a real thing. In fact, the application is a malware which seeks to harm the system instead of protecting it. ArmorDefender may be acquired online at various corrupt websites which use trojans to download and install the program. Once on board, ArmorDefender employs deceptive tactics such as scanning computer for viruses or generating fake alerts to push people into purchasing the software. All of the threats detected by ArmorDefender are fake and do not exist. The only malicious program which may harm your system in such case is ArmorDefender itself.

ArmorDefender may also violate the existing computer security and make it accessible for other similar parasites. It is also known to hijack the web browser and redirect it to malicious websites. ArmorDefender should be removed immediately upon detection.
