Do not enter your credit card number and passwords in a purchase form of the rogue because the information that you reveal is recorded by the criminals. Windows Defence Counsel is ascribed to the Rogue.VirusDoctor family which also includes such malicious software as Windows Pro Safety, Windows Private Shield and a bunch of rogues of the same kind. None of them can be trusted, and if you find any of the malware mentioned, do not delay to remove it from the system.

You will notice how diligently the malware “protects” your system, or rather informs about potential threats.
