An advertising about anti virus got into my computer and i can not get it out i have tried everything it does not work

I have had good using Ad-Aware by lavasoft.com. Go there and navigate to the free edition.

Good luck.

We called it adware, its a virus. i suggest u to install Avast 4.7, update the virus data base. make a full scan all all partition. if it ask you to run dos mode,click yes. then restart the pc, it will scan your computer Dos mode. delete all virus found. once done maybe some windows files maybe corrupted. u maybe need to reinstall windows. if u dont have anything important on the pc then no need to install avast, just reinstall windows, delete all partition first. go to my web site www.mnlcomputerltd.tk u will see under interesting links a link name Cyberserg. go to that web site make a search Avast in the search box.

Sounds like the "Anti-virus software" was actually spyware or malware.

First, install and run SpyBot and MalwareBytes.

If still a problem, roll back your operating system and files via System Restore. Access via Safe Mode if necessary. Choose a date before you downloaded this problem. Note that your data files will roll back, also.

If still a problem, you'll need to reinstall your OS.

Hope this helps.

Hi,
Is this the antivirus2009? If it is then its a virus itself and quite a nasty one.
Depending on how long the virus has been on the computer you may be able to restore the system to before you downloaded it.
To restore the system using XP click on the start menu, then the run box, type in the run box rstrui.exe
To restore the system with Vista click on the orb and in the search box type rstrui.exe.
Both methods will bring the restore window up, all you have to do is work out a date when your PC was running well.
If you can't restore the system with system restore then the virus has wiped out your restore points which could mean a full system recovery using recovery CD's or partition.


Good luck.

I need to know which one it is in order to help you. You will have to remove the spy ware from your registry using registry editor. If you want more help on this let me know, you can also download Maleware anti virus to remove many bugs that other systems can't remove. If you can't get rid of it after installing Maleware bytes e-mail me at [email protected] so I can give you the step-by-step procedure I also need to know what operating system you are running..
