    I have this on my desktop computer. I cannot get on the internet because of this. Is there a program I can purchase to get this off my desktop without re-formating my computer.

    I saw this “XP Internet Security” program come up and run a scan. I thought it was very suspicious since I never remembered installing it. I found this webpage. The only program that I installed was Mozilla’s Thunderbird 3 so I most likely became infected by visiting a malicious website.

    Look for “ave.exe” (like I did) if you can’t find “av.exe”.

    I downloaded the Recomended XP Internet Security 2010 remover download from above. It is asking for $30 to register the PC Tools Spyware doctor and remove the viurus. Now since I downloaded that it has made my computer worse – will not allow me to open any programs – it blocks access to everything. With the initial virus it only blocked the internet. Thanks – guess it wants to force me to spend the $30.

    Patrick : If you want, modify registry using regedit : Spyware Doctor is blocking parasite process for free, however the parasite is trying to re-launch itself on each execution of .exe files. Modify keys associated to launching .exe files like is shown in removal instructions.
    I would still recommend using spyware doctor to clean up the PC and avoid such infection in the future.

    XP Security has completely shut down access to the internet or add/remove programs or ANYTHING. I purchased Spy Doctor but can’t get to it on that system because the scam program has disabled all activity except that which connects to itself….what are my options?

  13. April 6th, 2010 at 09:42 | #13

    Lynne : try to stop processes first and check proxy settings in your browser (disable them). Contact PCTools support for future asistance.

    Stan : Use usb stick to move spyware doctor executable to your PC or disable XP Internet Security 2010 using task manager. Do not pay for this rogue – they will sell your credit card details further and in most cases you will not be able to use your PC.
