What is Defender-soft.com?

Defender-soft.com is a new annoying browser hijacker that seems to have been created by the same hackers who have invented Antispyware Soft. Antispyware Soft is a typical rogue anti-spyware which all the time after its fake system scan says that hundreds of malwares are detected. This rogueware is invented for the commercial goals only, so users are continuously offered to purchase its “licensed” version and redirected to the malicious domain Defender-soft.com where they can make a payment.

Once Defender-soft.com browser hijacker finds itself on the targeted PC, it won’t take too much time before it starts redirecting its victims to malicious domain containing fabricated information. Defender-soft.com interrupts into its victims Internet sessions and instead of the website which they want to visit brings them to the domain with purely deceitful content. There, users are offered to do a free system scan which gives the results that can be easily predetermined.

On the Defender-soft.com, scanners usually detect the same cyber threats no matter how clean the infected machine is and later offer a “good” security program which is promised to cure everything. Needless to say that the paid version of Antispyware Soft is offered for the user. However, choosing this program is definitely not a good idea. You need a reputable anti-spyware and to get rid of Antispyware Soft and its hijacker Defender-soft.com. Please, run a full system scan and delete all the malware from your computer. Read a free manual guide for their removal as well.
