September 15, 2008 11:20 AM PDT How to remove Antivirus XP 2008 Posted by Seth Rosenblatt 36 comments [Antivirus XP 2008 is back, unfortunately.

Advertised using the common tricks of Trojans and faux security alerts, this nasty piece of malware can take over your desktop settings to mimic safe mode, display fake virus detections, and opens a faux Internet Explorer window stating that Google has detected a malware infection. ] more info here- http://www.download.com/8301-2007_4-...in;contentBody below the main story are comments & more tips from other readers.

Trust me, I KNOW VERY WELL ABOUT THIS COCKAMAMIE VIRUS, or whatever it is. I've had to call the tech guys 3 times over this darn thing. I'm pretty sure it's gone, but who the heck knows. At least the tech guys from Verizon know what to do. I'm just holding my breath. AND ALAN HAS INSTRUCTIONS THAT IF HE EVER DOWNLOADS ANYTHING AGAIN, I SHALL SHOOT HIM. lol
