Lisa : try stoping all processes in task manager that you do not recognise (running under your user, not system). Also, rename executable to iexplorer.exe (in thumb drive).

I am trying what you suggested using a thumb drive and when I try to install the program it stops the install immediately. Any other suggestions?

I had no idea the Police Pro icon on my laptop’s desktop screen was the culprit infecting it. I also had Antivirus Pro 2010 on it and it they were causing all kinds of havoc. Glad I found your website; I was able to delete Police Pro, then use a real anti-virus software from Microsoft to clean up. Once that was done, I was able to delete the AV Pro 2010 as well. Now my laptop is working better than ever!

Window Police pro is an awful virus.I tried all the anti-malware methods,making boot cd’s, administrator password hacking programs, replacing corrupt system32/config/ files from the Dos prompt. Nothing worked, the virus kept popping back up. I finally reinstalled Window XP (Do not format the hard drive the hard drive during the reinstallation process). After the re-installation of XP, Windows police Pro was gone and my documents and pictures were all found in a temp folder. Good luck.

I tried using the malwarebytes software to remove the virus..but I was impatient and I closed the software since it was taking to long to scan…5 minutes passed and it didnt even scan 1%…but after a while i found 2 windows police pro folders in my main drive…I was able to delete one of them…but the other one it keeps telling me I need permission to delete it…and now when I try using malwarebytes..the software just doesnt open no more…I am going to try spyware doctor and hopefully it works…if not…any suggestions?…cuz this thing is annoying me like crazy!…
luckily the pop-ups that are suppose to open from the virus dont open for me…a small little box pops “interactive services dialog detection” telling me to “show the message” and if I click on that all those popups open…so thats ok for me…but for some reason..when I use Mozilla Firefox…Firefox automatically closes and the computer restarts?…I think its cuz of this virus..so I really need to get rid of it…
thank you

Ok.. for anyone else who can’t fix this with these methods:

The virus prevented me from running anything of these fixes because it stops registry editing. I did manage to remove it using ComboFix. The trick is getting your computer to run an antivirus program, and here’s what you do:

You’ll need a second computer and a USB flash drive of some sort (I actually used my mp3 player). Copy your antivirus program onto the drive. Now the key is to rename the file, you will need to rename the FULL FILE NAME, including the file extension. (you can unhide these in your folder options).
Say this is your anti-virus program: AntiVirus.EXE
Rename it to this: AntiVirus.SCR

SCR’s are screensavers, they are essentially .EXE files, just a different extension. You can now run this file on your infected computer and Police Pro will not stop it, it thinks it is just a screen saver running.

Good Luck! Sorry I did type this in a hurry, feel free to ask any questions

Try using process explorer from microsoft, Victor. Also, download spyware doctor /malwarebytes anti-malware or other good anti-spyware and move it using usb drive or network disk (rename it to iexplorer.exe or smth).

Joey : check if there is a proxy in IE/firefox, and if so, disable it. Also check your hosts files.

Haley : rename the program to iexplorer.exe . After install, go to your program folder, spyware doctor, and copy executable to iexplorer.exe again. Then that copied version run& update

Rename executable to iexplorer.exe or iexplorer.bat. They can not block explorer processes that easily – they want you to use explorer.
