in safe mode F8 run malwarebytes anti-malware and SUPERAntispyware,and what they find you

delete it manually. then run ccleaner to clean your pc, and mvregclean, to clean registry.

what mvregclean find you remove because the key is there but not the file ,folder or program.

even you reformat and it finds anything remove dont be afraid.

dont forget when you install this software to update them, and do an update every day

then restore untill before you get infected.

MS AntiSpyware 2009 is a rogue anti-spyware program from the same family as NanoAntivirus and Pro AntiSpyware 2009. MS AntiSpyware is advertised through the use of Trojans that display fake security alerts stating that you are infected and that you should install MS AntiSpyware 2009 in order to protect yourself. If you click on one of these alerts, the program will download and be installed on your computer. Once installed, MS AntiSpyware will be configured to start automatically, and when started, will automatically scan your computer. When the scan is complete it will show results that state you have a variety of infections on your computer that cannot be removed unless you first purchase the program. These infections, though, are all fake and are only being shown in order to scare you into thinking you are infected and thus having you purchase the software.



Here's how to uninstall it

It is better to remove MS AntiSpyware 2009 at the first opportunity in case of infection. Unfortunately, late removal of MS AntiSpyware 2009 may be ineffective, owing to the destructions that may already become irreparable. It is a part of MS AntiSpyware 2009 promotion to install trialware which starts automatically each time you are starting Windows and deletes program and system files to reassure users that scan results abounding with various imaginary names are real so that they must pay for MS AntiSpyware 2009 registration if they want to save their computers with data and Windows. Unfortunately, we cannot say MS AntiSpyware 2009 is the first or one of few programs running in this way, it is a quite common tactic widely applied by numerous rascals. Install reliable protection to get rid of MS AntiSpyware 2009 immediately and prevent further possible malware attacks.

To remove any software from the roots, you gonna need a third-party software... and the one we gonna use is a "Uninstall Tool"



First, exit the application by right click on its icon on the taskpan and click exit. Or you can end the process using Windows task manager.



once you download the program, install it just like any other software.

when the installation is complete, you just run it.



when you run it, you will see all the application installed on your machine. choose (SPYWARE GUARD 2008) and press uninstall. then the program confirms if u were sure or not.



here is a uninstaller i used:

1. You can use the uninstaller tool to uninstall the applation

What you see is known as malware. It isn't actually a geniune AntiSpyware program. It acts as a AntiSpyware software when it is actually malicious. (Also known as Rogue Software)



The best way to get rid of most types of malware is to have a good antivirus such as Avira Free Edition.



A quick fix I use all the time for customers is Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.



The free version can be downloaded here: http://www.download.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html?part=dl-10804572&subj=dl&tag=button



Run a full scan and follow the instructions.



Hope this helps.

Microsoft's MSRT- Malicious Software Removal Tool



For the current list of malware from Microsoft that the most recent MSRT can detect & cure go here:

http://www.microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/families.mspx



If you have downloaded the most recent MSRT from Microsoft (from the monthly 'Cycle Update'):

Right click the desktop > New> Shortcut; then type in " MSRT " (sans quote), a shortcut will be made directly to run the tool.

This will identify known malware, and corrective action taken.



Has full UI; quick scan takes 5 minutes; full scan is much longer.

Gives results of scans, checks e-mail, etc.

Very handy set-up.



For download of the MSRT, go here:

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=40587



On line scan also available.
