Remove XP Antispyware 2009


In PC Surgery in the ARC on Tue and DOVE today we have seen XP AntiSpyware 2009. Antispyware XP 2009 is an useless piece of application to scare innocent people. Don’t trust it. Antispyware XP 2009 usually come up after you installed a video codec that come with Trojan, malware and virus. Antispyware XP 2009 normally generates fake and misleading system popup error messages so people will be tricked into purchase Antispyware XP 2009 or XP Antispyware 2009. Stay alerted!

To remove it we downloaded free version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from download.com, the basic version is free, the pro version is paid for, and has more features.
Installed it on the infected laptop, and scanned the laptop, which had 45GB of data, so took 2 1/2 hours later the fake software was removed.

Well done to Doug and Dai for there effort today.
