<p style="text-align: left;">This is a new infection which has been created by scammers with the sole intention of installing it onto your PC, and then using it to make you buy the fake upgrade to the infection.

<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Antivirus Center</strong> is a newly released <span style="text-decoration: underline;">fake antivirus tool</span> which has been created by hackers to get you to buy the rogue upgrade to the virus. The design of this virus is typical of most fake antivirus tools &#8211; whereby it will install itself onto your PC, and then try and show you a number of rogue settings &amp; options to try and get you to purchase the rogue upgrade to the program. As you can probably tell, this is a complete scam and should not be trusted at all with your computer. Fortunately, it&#8217;s very easy to remove if you know. This tutorial is going to show you what to do to stop the virus and remove it from your PC for good.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span id="more-3091"></span></p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What Is Antivirus Center?</span></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">This is a new <span style="text-decoration: underline;">&#8220;malware&#8221; (malicious software) infection</span> which has been created by hackers to steal your personal information. Designed to look as much like a legitimate tool as possible, the virus works by installing itself onto your PC from a number of different sources, and will then cause a huge number of problems with the likes of Windows &amp; other important software.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The bad thing about this virus is the way it will continually block the likes of your Task Manager, settings &amp; other features on Windows. This problem is a big issue because it&#8217;s continually going to be preventing your PC from being able to access the important settings &amp; files that it needs to run, leading your computer to run much slower and less reliably. If you want to resolve Antivirus Center infections, you have to be able to restart your PC into &#8220;Safe Mode&#8221; and then use a tool that&#8217;s going to completely remove the infection from your PC.</p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>MS Removal Tool 2.20</strong> is a newly released FAKE ANTIVIRUS tool which has been designed by hackers to get you to purchase the rogue upgrade to the program. Despite looking like a legitimate tool, it&#8217;s a complete scam and should not be trusted <em>at all</em> on your PC. Fortunately, removing the infection is actually very simple if you&#8217;re able to use the steps outlined on this web page.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span id="more-3009"></span></p>

<p style="text-align: left;">This is a complete scam, which is also known as a &#8220;malware&#8221; (malicious software) infection. The way this virus works is to install itself onto your PC from the likes of a fake email, malicious website or some other form of Internet-based virus; and then will try and trick you into buying the rogue upgrade to the program. If you have this infection, you have to be able to get rid of it in the most effective &amp; reliable way possible &#8211; which is actually a little bit more difficult than what it is to remove most infections from your PC.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The bad part about MS Removal Tool 2.20 is that it will block the likes of Task Manager, and a number of the programs that you will need to get rid of it.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_583" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-583" title="SecurityCentral" src="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/SecurityCentral-300x220.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="220" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Security Central Screenshot</p></div>
<p><strong>Security Central</strong> is a rogue antivirus program which installs itself on your computer and proceeds to try and scam you into purchasing the &#8220;upgrade&#8221; of the software. This software is designed to look as &#8220;official&#8221; as possible so that you trust all the false results it gives and purchase the full version of the program. This is a virus and here&#8217;s how to remove it:</p>
<p><span id="more-582"></span></p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Where Does Security Central Virus Come From?</span></h2>
<p>Central Security is made by the same group of hacker group as the <em>&#8220;XP Police Antivirus&#8221; </em>program, and are trying just to get you to buy their &#8220;full version&#8221; of their program. The way this virus infects your PC is to show a fake scanning screen which looks like your computer&#8217;s control panel. This will then show you a small alert asking you to download the fix for the errors that are supposedly on your PC.</p>
<p>Although Central Security does not cause any spyware or privacy issues, if you purchase this software, you are giving your card details to the hackers who produced it, giving them direct access to your finances. It&#8217;s vital you&#8217;re able to remove this virus before it causes havoc on your PC.</p>
<h2>How To Remove Security Central</h2>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 1 &#8211; Download &amp; Install <a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/malwarebytes" target="_blank">Malaware Bytes</a></span></h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/malwarebytes">Download Here</a></li>
</ul>
<p><a href="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/go/malwarebytes"><img title="Vista Antivirus 2010 Remover" src="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/malware-bytes.gif" alt="" width="405" height="337" /></a></p>
<p>Malware Bytes is a free spyware &amp; malware removal tool which you can <a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/malwarebytes">download here</a>.  You need to install it on your PC and then let it scan your system. If you don&#8217;t have access to the Internet (because Security Central blocked it) then you should download this tool on another PC and then transfer the installation file via CD or USB pen.</p>
<p>Using this tool is very simple. You need to select the type of scan you want to perform and then press &#8220;Scan&#8221; to get the tool to do the task. This will send Malware Bytes through your system and it will identify all the infected files, removing them for you. This automated tool is the best way to remove the infection because it gets 95% of it.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 2 &#8211; Clean Out The Registry</span></h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download">Download This Registry Cleaner Tool</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Although Malware Bytes is very effective at removing the actual infection from your PC, it does not finish the job properly&#8230; and ends up leaving a series of settings on your PC. These are kept in the &#8216;registry&#8217; database and can actually allow the infection back onto your PC. In order to fully protect yourself, it is recommended that you download a <span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span> and then use it to remove any of the infected &#8216;Security Central&#8217; registry keys that can still cause problems. This tool is automated and is very easy to use.</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What This Removal Process Does:</span></h2>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Kills Processes</span></h3>
<ul>
<li>Security Central.exe</li>
<li>systemdb.exe</li>
</ul>
<p>You should open up the &#8220;Task Manager&#8221; by clicking <span style="text-decoration: underline;">CTRL + ALT + DEL</span> and then click on the &#8220;Processes&#8221; tab. This will then display a list of running processes, where you should then be able to find the listed files above. Click on each one and then click on the &#8220;End Process&#8221; button to stop the program from running. You can see an example of how that works below:</p>
<div class="mceTemp">
<dl id="attachment_37" class="wp-caption " style="width: 294px;">
<dt><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download"><img title="Stop The Processes" src="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/image022.png" alt="" width="284" height="280" /></a></dt>
<dd></dd>
</dl>
</div>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Removes Directories<br />
</span></h3>
<ul>
<li>c:\<span style="color: blue;"><span style="color: #000000;">Documents</span></span><span style="color: #000000;"> and</span> Settings\Bleeping\Start Menu\Security Central</li>
<li>c:\Program Files\Security Central</li>
</ul>
<p>These directories store the files that make Security Central work. This means that you just need to go into &#8220;My Computer&#8221;, find the above directories, select them with your mouse and press <span style="text-decoration: underline;">SHIFT + DELETE</span>. This will permanently remove them from your PC, preventing the program from loading up ever again.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Recomended &#8211; Clean The Registry (Highly Recommended)<br />
</span></h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download">Download This Registry Cleaner</a></li>
</ul>
<p>In order to prevent Security Central coming back on your PC, you need to remove all the registry entries it has entered. This important, because many people leave these intact and end up having the problem come back again. Registry entries store the settings and options for the program, and by using a <span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span>, you can remove them all and get your computer fit and healthy again. This is highly recommended</p>

<p><strong>Vista Antivirus 2010</strong> is a newly unleashed rogue antivirus tool which installs itself on your PC and proceeds to pressure you into buying this useless tool. Many people are finding this tool installed on their computer without their permission and need to remove it. If you are one of those people, here is what you need to do&#8230;</p>
<p><span id="more-246"></span></p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Where Does Vista Antivirus 2010 come from?</strong></span></h2>
<p>The origins of Vista Antivirus 2010 are not yet known, but it is installing itself on many computers from a series of fake spyware scan websites. Many fake websites have been set up which shows you an apparent picture of the &#8220;My Computer&#8221; Window of your PC.</p>
<p>And on this website, it shows a fake scan animation where many different made-up errors are shown which you are promoted to remove. Upon clicking the &#8220;Remove Errors&#8221; button, you will have the Vista Antivirus program downloaded to your PC.</p>
<p>Unlike many other rogue antivirus tools, Vista Antivirus looks to have been cloned and released as different versions, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>Antivirus Vista 2010</li>

<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>How To Remove Vista Antivirus 2010</strong></span></h2>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 1 &#8211; Download &amp; Install <a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/malwarebytes" target="_blank"><em>Malaware Bytes</em></a></span></h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/malwarebytes"><strong>Download Here</strong></a></li>

<p><em><a href="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/go/malwarebytes"><img title="Vista Antivirus 2010 Remover" src="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/malware-bytes.gif" alt="" width="405" height="337" /></a></em></p>
<p><em>Malware Bytes </em>is a free spyware &amp; malware removal tool which you can <a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/malwarebytes">download here</a>.  You need to install it on your PC and then let it scan your system. If you don&#8217;t have access to the Internet (because Vista Antivirus 2010 blocked it) then you should download this tool on another PC and then transfer the installation file via CD or USB pen.</p>
<p>Using this tool is very simple. You need to select the type of scan you want to perform and then press &#8220;Scan&#8221; to get the tool to do the task. This will send Malware Bytes through your system and it will identify all the infected files, removing them for you. This automated tool is the best way to remove the infection because it gets 95% of it.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 2 &#8211; Clean Out The Registry </span></h3>
<ul>
<li><strong><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download">Download This Registry Cleaner Tool</a></strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Although Malware Bytes is very effective at removing the actual infection from your PC, it does not finish the job properly&#8230; and ends up leaving a series of settings on your PC. These are kept in the &#8216;registry&#8217; database and can actually allow the infection back onto your PC. In order to fully protect yourself, it is recommended that you download a <span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span> and then use it to remove any of the infected &#8216;Internet Security 2010&#8242; registry keys that can still cause problems. This tool is automated and is very easy to use.</p>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">What This Removal Process Does:</span></h2>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong> Kills Processes</strong></span></h3>
<ul>
<li> Vista Antivirus 2010.exe</li>
<li>Uninstall.exe</li>
</ul>
<p>You should open up the &#8220;Task Manager&#8221; by clicking <span style="text-decoration: underline;">CTRL + ALT + DEL</span> and then click on the &#8220;Processes&#8221; tab. This will then display a list of running processes, where you should then be able to find the listed files above. Click on each one and then click on the &#8220;End Process&#8221; button to stop the program from running. You can see an example of how that works below:</p>
<div class="mceTemp">
<dl id="attachment_37" class="wp-caption " style="width: 294px;">
<dt><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download"><img title="Stop The Processes" src="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/image022.png" alt="" width="284" height="280" /></a></dt>
<dd></dd>
</dl>
</div>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong> Removes Directories<br />
</strong></span></h3>
<ul>
<li> System Root%\\Samples User Profile%\\Local Settings\\Temp Program Files%\\Vista Antivirus 2010 Program Files%</li>
<li>Documents and Settings%\\All Users\\Start Menu\\Programs\\Vista Antivirus 2010</li>
<li>Documents and Settings%\\All Users\\Application Data\\Vista Antivirus 2010</li>
</ul>
<p>These directories store the files that make Vista Antivirus work. This means that you just need to go into &#8220;My Computer&#8221;, find the above directories, select them with your mouse and press <span style="text-decoration: underline;">SHIFT + DELETE</span>. This will permanently remove them from your PC, preventing the program from loading up ever again.</p>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Recomended &#8211; Clean The Registry (Highly Recommended)<br />
</strong></span></h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download"><strong>Download This <span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span></strong></a></li>
</ul>
<p>In order to prevent Vista Antivirus 2010 coming back on your PC, you need to remove all the registry entries it has entered. This important, because many people leave these intact and end up having the problem come back again. Registry entries store the settings and options for the program, and by using a registry cleaner, you can remove them all and get your computer fit and healthy again. <strong>This is highly recommended</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Antivirus Live</strong> is a relatively new tool which installs itself on your PC and then proceeds to perform a fake antivirus scan. This scan actually doesn&#8217;t find any real problems and just shows up a lot of fake errors in order to get you to purchase the software. If you&#8217;ve seen through it&#8217;s false errors, then you&#8217;ll need to then make sure you get rid of this virus quickly and completely.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download"><img class="size-full wp-image-115 aligncenter" title="Antivirus Live Removal Instructions" src="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/antiviruslive2.jpg" alt="" width="447" height="285" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download"><span id="more-112"></span></a></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">Removing <strong>Antivirus Live</strong> can be quite tough, considering that the software has cleverly been designed to be extremely difficult to uninstall. Fortunately, there&#8217;s a very easy way to remove Antivirus Live from your PC:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;"><em> </em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong></strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<h3><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">STEP 1</span> &#8211; Stop Antivirus Live From Running</span></strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>[random]sysguard.exe</li>
</ul>
<p>You need to open up the Task Manager by pressing <span style="text-decoration: underline;">CTRL + ALT + DEL</span> and then click on the &#8220;processes&#8221; tab. This will then show you all the running programs on your PC. Select the one called &#8220;[random]sysguard.exe&#8221; and then click &#8220;End Process&#8221;. This will stop the program from operating on your system. Here&#8217;s what it should look like:</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-37" title="Stop Antivirus Live's Processes" src="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/image022.png" alt="" width="305" height="300" /></p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<h3><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">STEP 2</span> &#8211; Delete The Anvitivirus Live Directory<br />
</span></strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>%UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\[RANDOM CHARACTERS]\</li>
</ul>
<p>You need to open up &#8220;My Computer&#8221; and browse to the above directories. When you find them, select the directory you want to delete and then press <strong>shift + delete</strong> to remove it permanently from your computer. Using the Shift+Delete command actually makes the deleted directory bypass the recycle bin, removing them from your PC for good. This will prevent the program from coming back as its program files will be gone forever..</p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<h3><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="color: #0000ff;">STEP 3</span> &#8211; Clean The Registry<br />
</span></strong></h3>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download"><strong>Download this <span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span></strong></a></li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Antivirus System Pro</strong></span> is one of many fake antivirus tools floating around the Internet. It has no merit of benefits for your PC, except for the fact that it just scans your system and pretends to find issues that need fixing. It will then pressure you into purchasing the software with lots of adverts, popups and warning messages. Fortunately, there&#8217;s an easy way to remove this pest forever&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-109 aligncenter" title="antivirus-system-pro" src="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/antivirus-system-pro.png" alt="antivirus-system-pro" width="555" height="275" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><span id="more-108"></span><strong>Antivirus System Pro</strong> is actually quite easy to remove. It does not have any serious damaging properties which could compromise your system, and is really just a big form of adware that a company has put together to try and scam some people out of money. You can remove this issue in a few easy steps:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">STEP 1 </span>- Stop It Running<br />
</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Antivirussystempro.exe</li>
<li>uninstall.exe</li>
<li>sysguard.exe</li>
</ul>
<p>You will want to first stop the program from functioning by loading up the task manager and stopping the above processes. To do this, you need to press <span style="text-decoration: underline;">CTRL + ALT + DELETE</span> which will bring up the task manager. Then you need to click on the &#8220;Processes&#8221; tab which will bring up a series of applications that are running on your PC. After you&#8217;re on that screen, find the above applications and end each of them. Here&#8217;s what it should look like:</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-37" title="image022" src="http://personalcomputerfixes.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/image022.png" alt="image022" width="336" height="332" /></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">STEP 2 </span>- Delete Its Files</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span>c:\</span><span>ProgramFiles\Antivirus System PRO\conf.cfg</span></li>
<li><span> </span><span>c:\</span><span>ProgramFiles\Antivirus System PRO\mbase.vdb</span></li>
<li><span> </span><span>c:\</span><span>ProgramFiles\Antivirus System PRO\quarantine.vdb</span></li>
<li><span> </span><span>c:\</span><span>ProgramFiles\Antivirus System PRO\queue.vdb</span></li>
<li><span>c:\WINDOWS\sysguard.exe</span></li>
<li><span>c:\WINDOWS\system32\iehelper.dll </span></li>
</ul>
<p>You need to then load up &#8220;My Computer&#8221; and browse to the above folders &amp; files. When you find them, you need to select them and press <span style="text-decoration: underline;">SHIFT + DELETE</span> to permanently remove them from your PC. This will prevent Antivirus System Pro from loading up ever again.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">STEP 3 </span>- Clean The Registry<br />
</strong></span></p>
<p><span>Once you&#8217;ve removed the files it has, then you&#8217;ve almost removed the Antivirus System Pro virus from your PC. After that, it&#8217;s just a case of removing the registry settings it has left behind, to prevent it from loading up again on your computer. To do this, you need to use a <strong><span class='wp_keywordlink_affiliate'><a href="http://www.personalcomputerfixes.com/go/registry_cleaner_download" title="registry cleaner" target="_blank">registry cleaner</a></span></strong> which you can get for free from the top banner on this site. This step is highly recommended as many people forget it!</span><span></span></p>
