HOW TO REMOVE WINDOWS PRO DEFENCE KIT

Help! My computer got infected with Windows Pro Defence Kit. How do I remove it. Can anyone help me to solve this problem?

Windows Pro Defence Kit is a fake antispyware program which will prompt that your computer is infected with some unknown trojan. It will inform you that your current Microsoft Security Essentials is not powerful enough to remove the Trojan and you need to download some things to remove it.

The fake antispyware employs false scan results and fake security warnings to carry out their main goal of creating purchase orders for their misleading software. It will state that the computer in question is infected with a variety of Trojan infections, adware or malware and that you should purchase Windows Pro Defence Kit to remove these infections.Usually, when a Trojan infects a computer with the goal of delivering a rogue anti-virus program, the Trojan has one specific rogue program that it serves, and it opens a backdoor for that program. In the case of Windows Pro Defence Kit, the Trojan in question supports a long list of malicious programs that are trying to find a way onto your computer.

It will send you a message saying that in order to remove the threats it has detected, you have to buy Windows Pro Defence Kit’s full version, because the one you have is only a trial version. It may also tell you that you don’t have the fullest, most updated version, and that in order to get that version you need to buy Windows Pro Defence Kit.
