Use my free Remove-it software, it will remove that malware from your
system. Download it here

Do you really want to trust someone that was banned from posting
directly to Microsoft Usenet servers, someone that has posted links to
****ographic materials on HIS WEBSITE, who's website is in the MVP HOST
Block list?

Check links in my sig before connecting to that website

IME Ad-Aware doesn't remove WinFixer, which is probably what you have here.



On the above page there are links to two removal tools you can try. I found
these to work in most cases.

With a few examples it was necessary to disinfect using a BartPE or Windows
PE boot CD.

Re: remove winantivirus

Unexplained computer behavior may be caused by deceptive software


Run a /thorough/ check for hijackware, including posting your hijackthis log
to an appropriate forum.

Checking for/Help with Hijackware











When all else fails, HijackThis v2.0.2
() is the preferred tool to use.
It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware with
assistance from an expert. **Post your log to
,
,
,
, or other appropriate forums for review
by an expert in such matters, not here.**

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this
isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and
independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.

Re: remove winantivirus

Please note that "pcbutts1" is a fraud and is definitely
NOT a Microsoft MVP!
