I spend a lot of time killin’ these nasty things. Matter of fact I first saw it years ago as “Antivirus 2007″ and “Sykmatec Security Suite” (a prominent seller of software) considered the infection a “niusance” and did not consider it a threat at all. Many swear by “Malware Bytes” as a removal tool but the latest strain of the infection prevent it from even being loaded! I have depended on a new power house called, of all things, “SuperantiSpyware”. The tool is free and when the latest definitions are loaded, removes every trace of the infection. The big key to killin this thing is to catch it early! At the first or even the second sign of any popup/warning. If your infestation is really advanced, Kaspersky Recovery CD is free and vicius at removal. It might run for 12 hours but when you reboot, you be a lot closer to resolution. The latest infections have 4-5 trojans and the last one I foaught had a “root kit” installed as well. Good luck on the battle!
SuperantiSpyware free edition is really a good tool. Anyone can download it from: http://www.superantispyware.com/
Thanks Ernani. As I told already, this fake antivirus produce fake security signal and prompt you to buy full version of that antivirus to remove that security problem. It just a technique to sell product.
