hmm im not sure... it could be...
i dont use anti virus because it deletes files i want to keep :p
AV killers in my experience is just ending procceses of the anti virus and an check every second to see if they are enabled again so it can close it again..
also an easy way to check is your infected is just look if your built-in windows fire wall is still enabled, if it is not and it was before without you turning it off yourself you can be sure your infected ;o
