Content Defender

Whether you use Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Google Chrome, you may become the next victim of Content Defender. This program is published by Artex Management S.A. and signed by YUNITEKH SOFT, and it is possible that it will expose you to unreliable online offers. If you do not use ad-blocking tools, you must be used to seeing ads on the sites you visit, which is why this ad-supported program can work without much notice. What this advertisement-supported program can do is replace ads you typically see with its own ads. Even though interacting with online ads is always risky, the ads showcased by unreliable adware can be malicious, which is why you must delete it ASAP. Continue reading to find how to remove Content Defender from your operating system.

Although Content Defender is promoted at contentdefender.org, this site does not offer an installer. Despite that, this website plays a significant role as it introduces the completely unreliable ad-supported program as a network protection tool. Needless to say, Content Defender was not created to “protect your PC against unwanted and malicious content,” but this statement might fool some users. Of course, since this site does not offer an installer, it is unlikely that many users will be aware of it. This is quite unfortunate because the “Terms of use” and “Privacy policy” documents provided could help users understand more quickly that the so-called protection tool requires removal. For example, most users would delete Content Defender if they knew that it can show third-party advertisements and links.

Most users install Content Defender using third-party installers that bundle it together with other suspicious ad-supported programs (e.g., Torrent Search or eTranslator) that probably require removal as well. According to our research, these programs are usually signed in Russia and are targeted at users living in this country. It is possible that you had access to the Privacy policy of Content Defender and other useful information even if you did install it using an unfamiliar installer. Of course, most users do not read the boring agreements, which is a mistake! If you did not know that the supposedly beneficial tool can replace harmless ads and inject them into the websites for you to see, you might be shocked. Needless to say, this is the most important reason to delete Content Defender.

The fact that Content Defender is represented as an authentic security tool and that it can inject potentially unreliable ads by replacing the original ones is very disturbing. We suggest removing Content Defender from your operating system as soon as possible, and, according to our research, you should be able to get rid of this threat by uninstalling it via Control Panel. If you have no idea how to uninstall undesirable software, please check the manual removal guide below. You also should not forget about the threats that could have entered your operating system along with this malicious adware. Whether or not you can remove these threats manually, you have to consider installing security software that, besides protecting our operating system, can also delete malware automatically.
