When you're finished cleaning up with Malewarebyte, this is the one that you really need:

Be aware that anti-malware software may find and remove viruses but the damage they caused remain.

I found out that the ultimate trick to removing Antivira Av is booting your system into safe mode and THEN run whatever antispyware or antivirus program that you have. I also found out that this is a continuation of Antvirus .NET which I also had on my laptop 3 weeks ago... http://www.enigmasoftware.com/antiviraav-removal/ These guys explain all of the information about it.



For those wanting to remove Antivira Av, try hitting F8 key when your PC starts up and then select Safe Mode with Networking... then download a good antivirus or antispyware program that is made to detect Antivira Av (may require new DAT) file. That should do the trick. Worked for me twice!
