GreatDefender is a rogue antivirus application from the winisoft family. It is installed onto a system through the use of trojans and other malware which should give you an indication that it is not something that you want on your system.

Don’t fall for this scam and pay them for this software. They claim the problems found can only be fixed by paying for this software, don’t buy it. Instead, read on for how to remove greatdefender.
