Windows Defender

First, what is Windows Defender? Its Microsofts answer to spyware (keyloggers, bots,
rootkits, and so on). Its a relatively simple tool (with an easy-to-use dashboard) that
can be used to perform an immediate scan ofyour system to look for the latest spyware
and eliminate it from your system. Or, youcan have it working in the background to
stop spyware from infiltrating your systemahead of time. Spyware can do any number
of things to annoy you and slow down your system, such as displaying pop-up ads, altering
your Internet settings, and even using private information without permission. Beneath the
simple dashboard of Defender, the underly- ing engine is constantly working in the
background to protect you, even looking into Zip files (or other archive file formats) to see
whether you have harmful software within, even before you open the files (which is a
huge benefit because many spyware/mal- ware creators use archive installers).
