By Luciana on December 18, 2009 | Rogue Antispyware How to Remove SysDefence, SysDefence Removal Help

SysDefence is an imitation of a legitimate system security program which is not capable of providing computer security. The application mimics the processes performed by the real antiviruses, but does not protect the machine. Moreover, SysDefence is also a malicious software which might seriously harm the system.

SysDefence can be obtained online at a number of websites with questionable reputation. They employ trojans to download and install SysDefence therefore the user is unaware of the process. As Sys Defence boards the computer it starts performing misleading system scans and generating fake pop-up security warnings. It is very important to note that all of the threats detected by SysDefence are not real. Here is an example of a fake SysDefence message:

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 SysDefence and remove spyware threats from your PC.

All this is done to scare the user and make them believe that their computer had actually been infected and that they need to purchase the payed version of SysDefence to get rid of these “infections”. SysDefence is an infection itself and it should be removed as soon as possible.
