Question:
I need help with getting rid of a virus that is running on computer. Please?
2009-08-15 12:47:30 UTC
The "virus" constantly pops up thinks about a program called "Antivirus Protection Pro", but I know this is fake. When I try to open ANY program on my computer (Win XP), a window pops up saying that the program is infected, and I need to buy Antivirus Protection Pro to get rid of it. I'm running two system scans right now (Ad-Aware and McAfee), but nothing is popping up. I need to get this ad for a fake antivirus program virus off my computer. I'm typing from a different computer right now, for the record.

try comodo internet security pro they will connect to your computer remotely and install comodo internet security tuneup your pc and remove any virus for you while you watch and it also has a five star rating from download.com. If your firewall doesn't block it then your antivirus will detect it and if that misses it then you have defense plus which allows you to block any app that tries to modify your registry or system. So they will connect to your pc remotely and fix any issue and best of all its free for 30 days you can cancel anytime if you dont like it but you will!!!

Kaspersky (one of the leaders in anti virus detection) have a very useful free online scanner. It wont delete any but it will give you an indication of what may be causing it
