It’s kind of scary how these programs like XP Defender try to con people out of their money by pretending to be XP related programs. What’s sad is that people fall for them. But that’s how they work.
XP Defender will scare you by saying your computer is swarming with viruses, insinuate that they’re part of your Windows program, and charge you money for the “registered version” or “upgrade.” Too bad they don’t just go away after taking your money.
Nope, they come back later for more.
What really sucks is that they’re always hard to get rid of. I know this sounds messed up, but the old viruses are almost at the level of a friendly joke compared to these guys. Luckily I haven’t seen any that will burn up your computer yet.
