What is the HDD Defragmenter?
The HDD Defragmenter is a kind of virus that works the same way as most viruses do. It gets into the PC somehow through unsecured access to the Internet, risky downloads, fraudulent mail, spam or by PC users using sites which are not trusted. Once it gets into the computer, it starts infiltrating the system by installing itself. When it starts to run the program, it will start giving out fraudulent alerts and scans, alarming the user of the many infections in the PC. Then, it will present itself as the program to fix such infections while offering the full upgrade at the same time. Simultaneously, Windows features and other important Windows functions are blocked. This prevents the user from easily deleting the virus from the system. This “malware” or malicious software has caused damages to a lot of users worldwide and some have been duped into buying the full upgrade. Remember: the program is just a scam.
