Orange Defender Antivirus

The Orange Defender Antivirus is an anti-malware tool that is being distributed to users via various shady methods. This is why the Orange Defender Antivirus is considered to be a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program).

The Orange Defender Antivirus is likely to be distributed via freeware bundles. Applications that are being propagated via such bundles may be untrustworthy and should be avoided. Often, users are looking for one specific application but end up installing other software alongside it because they fail to pay attention during the installation process. The installation process may be misleading purposefully so that users agree to install the additional software bundled with the initial application. Needless to say, this distribution method is frowned upon as it is designed to trick users. The Orange Defender Antivirus also may be spread via fraudulent advertisements. Often, advertisements of this type would claim that the users' computers have been compromised and they need to act now to fix the problems. The ad would then offer an anti-virus solution that is meant to fix all the supposed issues present on the user’s system. However, these reports are often fake or exaggerated severely, as they are designed to mislead users into downloading the software they are promoting. The Orange Defender Antivirus may appear as a free utility at first glance, but the user only gets 30 days free of charge. Then, if the users wish to keep using this tool, they have to pay the full price of the utility.

If you want to obtain a reliable anti-malware tool, it is best to trust a reputable vendor instead of relying on utilities that use dodgy distribution methods like the Orange Defender Antivirus.
