It spread thru my network onto my laptop also. I had to take that back to factory settings to get rid of it. I have not been able to take my business computer back to factory settings, too much info to replace. If anyone has any idea on how to get rid of this, please email me.

If you open up your Task Manager and click the 'processes' tab, you will see all the ones running on your machine. Regards, Admin Blair,

A few comments: Removal of registry entries works fine. The av.exe file also exists as a .ini file in the \Application Data\ area (there must be some startup command that renames it to av.exe so that it can run). Worse. If you use task manager to stop the av application it will not shut down properly, but re-associates .exe program extensions to null and tries to corrupt the hard disk. So that on re-booting, the operating system does a file system check disk and will not allow any applications to run unless you re-assign .exe program extensions using the control panel associate file option. Infection occured 08/02/2010. AVG 8.5 free anti virus software did not pick this up. I have Windows XP. A few comments:
