Here’s a fake antispyware that’s been given a dash of uniqueness. But before we talk about that, let it be known that this malware enters your system the usual way – through trojans. How else?

Since it creates a couple of registry files, it can be potentially dangerous. Expect it to launch the usual legit-looking pop-ups and alert notifications. It will also perform scans and report the presence of rogue programs. Of course, all these actions are just part of an elaborate scam.

Let’s now move on to its unique feature.

SysDefenders provides a unique feature that puts it a notch higher than most fake antispyware programs – it presents its security alerts in four different languages: English, French, Italian, and German. Well, at least the crooks who concocted this vile software had some linguistic flair.

But lest you start admiring them, be warned. SysDefenders is out to dupe you. Just like all fake antispyware programs, its primary objective is to persuade you into buying a so-called “full-version”. They’ll add that the full version is the only way to get rid of the (false) threats. Of course, don’t expect the “full-version” to do anything useful. It’s all part of the scam, remember?

Symptoms Of Infection

• Your computer is acting slow. SysDefenders slow down your system significantly. This includes starting up, shutting down, playing games, and surfing the web.

• You are getting pestered with pop ups. SysDefenders infects your registry and uses it to launch annoying pop up ads out of nowhere.

• Searches are redirected or your homepage and desktop are settings are changed. This is a symptom of a very serious SysDefenders infection.

Dangers Of Infection

Viruses like SysDefenders will infect your registry and other important system files. If the infection is not treated it can cause a complete collapse of your system.

Some SysDefenders infections contain spyware and keyloggers which can be used to record sensitive data like passwords, credit card, bank account, and social security numbers. The longer you allow the infection to fester, the greater the chance of identity fraud.
