So my son comes to me and says he has a virus on his PRECIOUS pc..........it is malware that says you have a virus and wants you to buy their antivirus product....crap comes up all over the screen and popups and notifications. I have never had a virus that i couldnt get rid of, but this one has got the better of me. First thing i did was turn off system restore and restart in safe mode and run my antivirus program, it found one item..restart, the crap is still there!!!
I get on the net and did lots of research on this malware...it is called Antivirus system pro!!! there are over 4 million results on this piece of crap!!! i follow lots of instructions from lots of different tutorials on how to get rid of this but 2 days later it is still there. The best i can manage at this stage is a small dos program rkill.com which if you execute at the very begining of your desktop loading, stops the processes associated with this malware, but it is still there. I have done online scans, spyware scans, malware scans, deleted programs, deleted files in regedit etc
I told my son to format and start again, but he is still hoping a solution will be found.
PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP??????????????????????????????????/
