Hello,
What do you do if task mgr & registry are locked up. I’ve got Advanced Virus Remover virus. I know where the virus is, it just won’t let me delete it as it says the program is running & needs to be turned off before it can delete. I’m about ready to F10. Thanks, ED

Same question as Jeff,

How do i figure out which registries belong to a certain “Antivirus program”, (Antivirus System Pro)? In which file of Registry Editor would I find thoes registries?

Please help, I’m kinda lost.

Those of you having problems with files or registry entries reappearing after successful removal please remember to first deactivate the system recovery overwatch of your harddisks before the next removal attempt.

If you prefer than do first create a system recovery point before that deactivation and a consequent new removal attempt. But actually restoring that system recovery point would likely result in the reinstatement of the vermin you are trying to remove.

Once the malware has been successfully removed, then creating a new system recovery point, a cold restart and then the reactivation of the system recovery overwatch of your harddisks would likely be a good idea.

Hope that helps some of you.

I removed the components of a personal antivirus program manually (module error would not permit uninstall function) and I have used a Registry Cleaner to remove most of the related registry entries but 2 remaining items could not be deleted with regedit method (using administrator logon safe mode, user safe mode or normaly mode). These are: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\avira; & HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\x-avcsd. Everything else on my XP Pro – SP3 works fine except that it would not accept a new installation of antivirus software. Therefore, I currentlydon’t have antivirus protection. Could anyone please help me a solution. Thank you.

Security Tool has infected my Computer I have tried to use the run option but it won and immediately closed; the same goes for Add and Remove Programs and Security Center…pretty much anything that can be used to get rid of the infected files. I’m stumped and would really appreciate if anybody helped me out Thanks
