Welcome to the Ultimate Virus Removal Thread


In this thread there will be guides on how to remove nasty viruses which disguise themselves as Anti-Virus programs. Most of these viruses come from the group named Rogue.

For all those of you who have had a virus like this you should know what they are like. And for those who haven't trust me they are a nasty bunch. These viruses specialize in fooling the user into giving out Credit card details and other valuable information.

Here is my advice to you. If your windows security starts acting up and it says your computer/laptop is infected, you should click on it (the speech bubble). If a program appears which you have never installed or seen before, immediately close it and make sure you write down what the programs name is. After you close the program make sure you restart your computer/laptop. When your computer/laptop restarts get on this thread and make sure you look at the page with the program, follow the instructions on how to remove the program and be sure to follow it all up by getting a Anti-Virus program.

How to Remove an AV Security Virus


The AV Security Virus, also referred to as Antivirus Security, is a virus that disguises itself as a legitimate antivirus program.
