How to remove Internet Security 2010?
What is Internet Security 2010?
Internet Security 2010 (or IS2010) is the program that you should never trust because it’s just a new version of the “famous” rogue anti-spyware called Advanced Virus Remover. InternetSecurity2010 mostly uses Trojans viruses that stealthily attack compromised PCs and install all the data needed for the program. Users normally don’t know anything about this infiltration and, just after seeing its misleading activities, notice that dangerous IS2010 is on their PCs. You must remove Internet Security 2010 at once it appears on your desktop!
Internet Security2010 takes over the whole system once installed. It creates fake random files and changes some registry entries to start automatically when Windows boots up. Moreover, it is known to block legitimate programs it finds. All these actions are done secretly and rogueware shows up only when it starts displaying fake system scanners and pop-ups. Trying to make you scared, Internet Security 2010 scans the system and displays lots of warning messages about various threats detected. Moreover, it even pop-ups when legitimate media player processes (QuickTimePlayer.exe, AdvancedDVDPlayer.exe, tvp.exe, realplay.exe, windvd.exe, winamp.exe, setup_wm.exe, LA.exe, PowerDVD.exe, mplayerc.exe, wmplayer.exe) start running and reports such information:
Windows can`t play the folowing media formats: AVI;WMV;AVS;FLV;MKV;MOV;3GP;MP4;MPG;MPEG;MP3;AAC;WAV;WMA;CDA;FLAC;M4A;MID. Update your video and sound codec to resolve this issue.
Finally, all its victims are offered purchasing the “licensed” version for fixing everything and even displayed Setup Launch Windows:
Setup
You’ve just launched an IS2010 Setup program. Please wait for 1-2 minutes till installation will complete.
Needless to say, that you should never purchase this scam ware and remove Internet Security 2010 instead. This rogue anti-spyware only pretends to be a reputable anti-spyware and reports infections that are invented by the same program. It is highly recommended deleting IS2010 before it downloads more malware onto the infected machine.
To remove Internet Security 2010, reboot your PC into Safe Mode with Networking:
1. Reboot your computer
2. Start tapping F8 before Windows is launched
3. Choose Safe Mode with Networking after seeing a table.
Then login as a user you were using before and download Spyware Doctor. When downloaded, save it on your desktop, install, update virus data base and then start running a full system scan.

Internet Security 2010 is classified as Rogue Anti-Spyware. After infecting a user’s system, it proceeds to scare its victim into buying the “product” by displaying fake security messages, stating that your computer is infected with spyware and only Internet Security 2010 can help you to remove it after you download the trial version. As soon as the victim downloads Internet Security 2010 trial version, it pretends to scan your computer and shows a grossly exaggerated amount of non-existent errors. Then, Internet Security 2010 offers to buy the full version to fix these false errors. If the user agrees, Internet Security 2010 does not only fix the errors, but it also takes the user’s money and may even install additional spyware into the victim’s computer.
Some Rogue Anti-Spyware, such as Internet Security 2010, may offer users to buy it after the victim clicks on a banner or a pop-up while surfing the internet. Usually, a Trojan is installed to a victim’s computer after clicking on the advertisement. It then proceeds to download or even install Internet Security 2010, which is another way for Rogue Anti-Spyware to spread itself.
Most of rogue Anti-Spyware, such as Internet Security 2010, is nearly impossible to remove manually.
ya spyware doctor found all the infections, but it did nothing about it just told me i have to B*U*Y the program to remove it – makes you wonder if they release the virus to just sell removal tools
Joe: Development of good anti-spyware tools costs money. If there is a “free” program, there is either a catch, it is crap, or they are trying to get money in other way. You can try using malwarebytes instead, their remover is free but it will not protect against similar infections in the future.
I have had to remove this twice in 1 week. bleepingcomputer removal worked for about 3 days. Can’t figure out where it’s coming from— any ideas? The removal is long and tricky– even with malwarebytes it will stop the scan and removal of itself! It will hide its files and disable the Taskmanager so manual removal is difficult. If anyone knows of a known source, please share! AVG Free AV seems to be letting it in.
@admin I bought the removal tool. I may never use it again, but for the price it was well worth it. I was about to give up and just buy a new computer, but the download allowed me to remove the components enough to do a system restore. (: now I’m good to go. However, I read of instances where people were not allowed to download the program. Just be patient as your computer will run more slowly than usual. You may think its not going to work, but give it a few minutes to start. Good luck to anybody that gets this crappy virus!
@joe
Well what about the first step? Stop these processes. how do you do that when you hit ctrl, alt, delete is2010 pops up and says the device is not working because it is infected? Even during safe mode it does this so How do you stop the processes?
There is no way to use the task manager so there is absolutely NO way to stop the processes of this ware. I really wonder how on earth who ever wrote these directions forgot to mention that very important part. IS2010 Prevents the task manager from working in any way shape or form. It also prevents you from being able to delete its files because they are always in use even DURING SAFE MODE!!!
Someone please explain to me how this is suppose to work because I dont see it as possible..
WM: do it in safe mode (starting with step 2). Or reboot and hit ctrl+shift+esc couple times right after being logged in.
WM: Internet Security 2010 does not disable task manager in all cases. You can do it in safe mode, or start task manager right after logged in, or use a different program (process explorer is good choice, a download from microsoft). You might need to rename the programs to something.pif to pass IS2010 though.
to kill the processes
Copy cmd.exe and rename it to something else (e.g. abc.exe)
you can then load abc.exe
from the command prompt use TASKKILL to kill the processes
I am having a problem with this freaking antivirus 2010 lol.. its attacked my whole computer, all I did was go on a website on GOOGLE which is supposed to be a trusted web browser, anywho I was looking for someone on youtube and BOOM freaking this attacked me, and installed itself before I could even unplug the pc. lol..

No matter if I start comp. in safe mode or windows, the IS2010 pops up. Can not past this. There is no task bar, nothing. goes right to this pop up virus scam.
I am a Company owner, I just had the Malware from Internet Security 2010
This is how you are to remove the Malware and all its crap that comes with.
1st of all have a program which you can control the startup programs.
2nd Go to the this section, and lok for any strange files that are not used by
Microsoft or any other registered program. ( keys like ini files with strange code names) wK5ygHTT563903YYt like this.
Then click them all of as not i use for startup.
3RD step Turn off he Comp open in safe mode with NETWORK.
4th go back to startup program goto these stupid files, right click open the cntainer on HARD DRIVE, you see many that are in use, but CHECK them all as only one of them files will open in Temp folder.
Here you will see exe fils Adobe Skype etc,……….(THESE ARE THE MALWARE COVER TO CONFUSE YOU)
5th Here you go 98 exe files to be deleted one by one, you will know these files as they ay like RND.exe Fuckyou.exe fukurself.exe and so on.
Here you remove all the folder including dummi files like Adobe Skype etc.
6 Your nearly done, empty bin, reboot and WOW you in the clear.
This is not a Virus its Malware, its created on bad hosted servers.
Keys to remeber:
Remeber date and time
Next time your windows is runnng slow on search engines turn off computer (DONT WAIT and risk)
Report to search engines on which you ot the malware
This is a must do
Email the company with abusive letter
Well it took me 3 hours to figure it our and saved my JOB.
If computer acts slow when accessing search engines, check the hosts file (or proxy settings). Thats the first place to look at if the searches are not redirected to malware servers. Also, simply deleting files will not fix that problem, as till you fix hosts file and proxy your searches might lead to infected websites.
