Well, I have AntiVirus 360 and I want to get rid of it, I have tried searching for ways to remove it and found alot of ways to delete it. One problem is that I cannot download and spyware on my computer, either AntiVirus 360 either blocks it or when I get to the download page, it says "Your current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded" I have Norton. I have deleted the folder and everything, but I am trying to remove it COMPLETELY so I can go on my Internet Browser without AntiVirus blocking it.

Ok, you can't download anything, then follow these instructions and then follow the free removal guide (bleepingcomputer) using Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.



Do this first.



* Click on Start, click Run, and then type devmgmt.msc and click OK

* On the View menu click on Show hidden devices

* Browse to Non-Plug and Play Drivers and you should see something like TDSSserv.sys

* Highlight that driver and right click on it and select DISABLE

* Now RESTART your computer.



To install the program:



Right click on the installer > 'Properties' > rename the installer



How to load up Malwarebytes again:



Right click on the shortcut of Malwarebytes > go to 'Properties' > go to 'Find Target' > rename it, for instance 'your name.exe' and then double-click to run it, not the shortcut (unless you rename it from within the shortcut itself, as well).



Start at "Automated Removal Instructions for Antivirus 360 using Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware:"

After removing this malware. Because of the aggressive advertising is due to trojan Vundo, very likely, it's because your Java is out of date and trojans have exploited that. Go here to get your latest Java and you can remove the older versions from Add/Remove.
