Gudefender.com

Although some websites touting random security tools might look legitimate on the surface, when considering parting with your money and billing information it’s always necessary to dig deeper than the mere surface. Doing this will enable you to identify websites such as Gudefender.com as the harmful browser hijacking web domains that it is. Gudefender.com is a major player in the online marketing campaign of well known and much despised rogue antispyware Antivirus .NET. This rogue employs various tactics to spread its infections to prospective host PCs, but making use of browser hijackers such as Progressmb.com and Gudefender.com remains one of the most popular ways of infecting unsuspecting PC owners with its malware.

Gudefender.com forcefully redirects users browsing and search sessions to its compromised web domains where it will ultimately try and convince the consumer into parting with his money for Antivirus .NET’s worthless software. The problem comes in with the fact that Gudefender.com is completely biased towards the fake security software it touts, as this hijacker, like any other is completely dependent on affiliate marketing to make its profits.

Throughout the entire website users will see various Microsoft Windows badges stating that Antivirus .NET is compatible with Windows 7, Vista and XP. This is simply not the case, and Windows has no affiliation with Gudefender.com or Antivirus .NET.

Once Gudefender.com has successfully either scared or fooled the consumer into parting with his money, the website refers the consumer to its online payment portal to complete the purchase of Antivirus .NET. Gudefender.com lists the Antivirus .NET products under the following prices:

Antivirus .NET Limited for $49.95
Antivirus .NET Plus for 59.95
Antivirus .NET for $69.95

Now this payment portal, although seemingly genuine and secure looking is completely suspect and very dangerous! Users are urged never to reveal any of their sensitive payment particulars to this website as it is run by cyber criminals with malicious intent.

In order to safeguard your PC against the dubious tactics of the developers behind Antivirus .NET and Gudefender.com, invest in a genuine security tool which will not only destroy Gudefender.com Trojans and malware, but also offer protection against future similar scams and attacks.
