Can’t agree more with you, Dale. On May 19th, the sales person from Cyberdefender persuaded me to purchase its $389.97 for one PC, two year contract. He promised me it would be the best for me to have. I was probably too naive to trust him. After less than a hour he worked on my PC, it went crashed, and I wouldn’t even log in. I tried several times to talk to a live person, but was on hold each time I had attempted. The funny thing was I received a completion notice saying my computer was cleaned, and ready to go. When I realized this is a total scam, I called again the same day, and demand for the full refund. The guy from its billing dept. refused to do so. His reason was too bad someone had already worked on my computer, so they had to charged me. This is totally different from what they have advertised on its website:”Risk Free Guaranteed” I insisted that I need the full refund since I am very unhappy with its service, and told them I would have my credit card company involved if they didn’t meat my need, he finally agreed. I would NOT recommend Cyberdefender to anyone. Dealing with them feel like if I was going to hell.

Cyberdefender is a rip off! I have tried everything to rid my pc of it and to know avail. It has let 2 bad viruses on my pc and I finally managed to get them off, but not cyber defender itself. Went into registry and deleted everything cyberdefender and it’s still there. Unbeliveable! Can you suggest and way to rid me of this? Sincerely, Millie

Cyberdefender is a load of garbage! I’m in the process of cleaning up an infected PC that Cyberdefender is installed and running on…the owner wen to “DoubleMySpeed” not knowing any better and paid for that crap. After removing it, I scanned the system with legitimate programs and they found a ton of malware. All Cyberdefender was doing was slowing down the PC and cashing in on an unsuspecting user. I warn everybody at work to avoid those sites at all costs because they are scams.

Funny, even my computer said …to down load their crap… “may harm your computer”. The last two scams like this one, [same" cyberdefender corp"] I put on a fresh reload computer to test its claims with no problems or web usage on the computer, and it still showed some 300 “errors” to which the known company “NORTON” Windoctor said the computer was fine, and my Legit AV soft ware keeps showing “no problems”. I have repaired dozens of computers this year that made this mistake, and then using a LEGIT AV company fixed the actual problems [mostly Cybers malware] and yes it costs around the same price, but over all it costs a far less than Cyberdefender because it actually fixes the real problems, including their installation.

Was watching the tube this evening and saw, for the first time, a “Doublemyspeed.com” commercial. I immediately this was a bogus outfit, so I did a search for a review. Read your piece on the Cyberdefender stuff used by Doublemyspeed.com

I do basically all the same pc repair tasks coverred on your price list–and pretty much for the same costs-which are very reasonable. I too spend most of my time removing malware–but I’ve never run into Cyberdefender garbage. So this is good heads-up stuff.

Also, I was impressed with your strong recommendation for Eset Nod32. I run it on my 2 main personal machines, and also recommend it to all my clients.

Anyway, good site. I’m adding it to my bookmarks toolbar.
