Title: Defence Center Removal Guide
Post by: Nick on September 17, 2010, 05:14:19 PM
Defence Center is a fake antivirus program that produce fake scan result to cheat the user to purchase the full version of Defence Center which cannot remove any malware from the computer. Defence Center installs in the computer and start itself automatically when Windows boot. Then, it will scan the computer and state that there are many files infected by malware and ask the user to remove the malware by purchasing the full version of Defence Center. Do not believe what is shown by Defence Center as all of them is a lie.

Defence Center provide fake feature like "System Scan", "Security Settings" and "Privacy Settings". All these features do not really function.

Defence Center should be removed immediately!
