My first real post and its a huge tip for computer users.
There is a new trend out there where nasty Viruses and worms are disguising themselves as Anti Virus programs.
I will try to cram as much helpful links I can in here for each listed threat for you.
Some of the known threats are (also, many variations of the basic name)
Antivirus 2008 (manual removal details HERE)
Antivirus 2009 (manual removal details HERE)
Your Antivirus
XPAntivirus
IEAntiVirus
Removal options_____
1. | Log on to Windows as Administrator. |
2. | Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click System Restore. System Restore starts. |
3. | On the Welcome to System Restore page, click Restore my computer to an earlier time (if it is not already selected), and then click Next. |
4. | On the Select a Restore Point page, click the most recent system checkpoint in the On this list, click a restore point list, and then click Next. A System Restore message may appear that lists configuration changes that System Restore will make. Click OK. |
5. | On the Confirm Restore Point Selection page, click Next. System Restore restores the previous Windows XP configuration, and then restarts the computer. |
6. | Log on to the computer as Administrator. The System Restore Restoration Complete page appears. |
7. | Click OK. |
After the System Restore, your machine "Should" be clean, however, running the below programs will insure all is gone.
