Remove TrustSoldier (Removal Instructions)
October 12th, 2009 | by Alex |TrustSoldier Descriptions:
TrustSoldier is the latest scareware application from the Winisoft family. As other members of this family, TrustSoldier is installed and promoted through the use of different Trojans. The Trojans installed on your personal computer, will configure Windows Registry in such a way that the application will always start automatically as you boot Windows.
Every time it starts, simulated scans of your machine will be initiated. TrustSoldier will detect the threats that it has previously put into your computer. You will get pop-up warnings that your system is infected. The only way to get rid of the malware, according to TrustSoldier, is to buy the full version of the software.
However, we caution you not to purchase TrustSoldier. This is only a scam program designed to steal your money. You will pay but you will not get anything for that.
Beware! Do not install TrustSoldier! If it is already on your PC, remove it as soon as possible.

The above solutions didn’t work for me as the Trojan stopped me installing any software, getting on the internet, searching for files OR restoring to a later date. After 5 hours I fixed it by restarting windows in SAFE MODE then restoring windows to a point before the infection. I then installed Malwarebytes anti-malware and it found the infection and isolated it. I also ran my virus checker AFTER malwarebytes. I hope this saves you the 5 hours messing around with regit etc!!! God bless the Queen – The English
