Problem with Microsoft Security Essentials/ AV Security Suite?

Question

AV Security Suite somehow got attached to my computer, and these messages keep popping up about viruses on my computer. When I try to open up Microsoft Security Essentials, it opens for a second and then disappears before I could click on anything.

What should I do? How to remove AV Security Suite? How to get Microsoft Security Essentials to work?

Answer 1

AV Security Suite has disabled your MSE (and probably lots of other stuff). on your computer.



As you may have figured out, AV Security Suite is a virus itself. Not a real easy pest to remove but it can be done. But there is NO easy 1-click solution.

Try malwarebytes or spyware doctor instead. They can both work with MSE. You should keep paid version of any of these two to reduce risk of similar infections in the future.
