I have no ideas how secure antivirus pro got into my computer. I haven’t visited any bad websites and I haven’t installed any bad software. I wonder who has used my computer in the last few days.

I couldn’t delete it no matter what I tried. I just called my friend who promised to show up tomorrow. Keeping my finger crossed…

I am not a computer genius, but it took me only one hour to remove Secure Antivirus Pro. I stopped the processes in the task manager as you mentioned, then searched the files using Windows advanced search feature, deleted them promptly. I couldn’t find the registry keys though. But it’s not necessary in my case. Reboot the computer then it comes up clean with the scan. And now I am a computer expert!

I carry a little jump drive around in my pocket. I have a dozen different virus on it.
When someone has treated me down and dirty, I get back by making an excuse to use their computer and then it is game time. They never knew what hit them.
Virus can sure a function in real life, at least, I enjoy them when I need them.

Peter, that’s criminal act. I would get your @SS sued if you indeed do that to me.
