I just removed this from a system where the guy called me with no details of what was wrong. This thing is really nasty and hides itself all over the machine. If you get a machine infected with it(XP), very first thing boot to safe mode and shut off system restore. It sets a restore point on every boot and reestablishes itself. Get rid of all temp Internet files, regardless of the browser, then after you remove it you still have to go to MSCONFIG and get rid of the VAV entries in start up. Other wise it leaves a pop up message \"unknown word\" and when you click OK it downloads again.

My system has recently become infected by Vista Antivirus 2008. I have tried everything I was capable of performing as suggested here, and even downloaded and paid for the Spyware's "Free" VA2008 detector/ remover to no avail. VA2008 has corrupted my system so thoroughly that I was incapable of accessing some of the Start > functions even in Safe Mode and the Spyware detector finds the infected files, and while I click to have it delete them, they return as soon as I reboot. After reading Ken Maxwell's comment above, I realized that it may still be lingering in my system, and in places that I unable or disabled from finding. I would consider myself on the higher curve of computer literate, but am far from capable of working on a computer in rudimentary mode of software found in Startup mode. I really cannot afford to lose what's on my hard drive and would direly appreciate any help anyone could offer. Thank you in advance!

I have found a easy way to delete VAV from your computer. Start your computer in Safe Mode, push F8 many times while loading, then select safe mode. scan your computer for VAV Then delete all the files that appear empty your recycle bin and restart your computer

Vista antivirus 2008 did so much damage to my computer, after about a week, all my desktop icons and toolbar disappeared and completely disabled my REAL antivirus program!! I tried to remove manually, but my computer gave me error messages when I tried to remove the infected files. I purchased a real anti-spyware program, and it only removed some of the files. Finally, I had to call a professional tech. My computer is just fine now but I had to dish out over $200 to get it completely removed :(
