Desktop Defender 2010 is a fake anti-spyware software from the same family as Contraviro and UnVirex. Similarly to most of the roguewares, Desktop Defender 2010 sneaks into your computer through Trojans and gets in when you visit some malicious sites.
Desktop Defender 2010 is usually installed even you don’t notice that. The software starts its simulated scans every time you turn your computer on. Of course, the application will find many threats on your machine. However, these files are only created by the Trojans.
In order to remove these fake files, Desktop Defender 2010 suggests you removing the malware by purchasing the full version of the application. This is a malicious application and should not be trusted.
