Kranny Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 it might not work that easy kranny. true, but it also helps to know what the name of the program is. googling the program name and "removal" comes up with VERY helpful guides on how to remove them. along the lines of "antivirus 2009 removal" (made up) will come up with super awesome guides.

Dr. Johnson Posted January 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 it might not work that easy kranny. true, but it also helps to know what the name of the program is. googling the program name and "removal" comes up with VERY helpful guides on how to remove them. along the lines of "antivirus 2009 removal" (made up) will come up with super awesome guides. I wish it was that simple. The program will not allow any type of downloading or opening of software that can remove it. The program also only allows the pc to be on 15 mins before it bluescreens and shuts down. The fix for me is save as much info as possible on an external drive then remove the drive from the pc and install it into my laptop and reformat the whole drive. I then get to start from the beginning.... Yea 10 hours of work left... anyways thanks for your comments. I do appreciate the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n8ball2013 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 buy a usb hard drive adapter hook it up to a known good computer that is virus protected and scan it that way. You could also make a portable malware bytes version and scan it that way. put it on a thumb drive and go at it It probably wont detect it since its not technically installed. if it does and deletes the Exe make sure you have a back up copy of the files somewhere else. Then chagne the name of the exe and retry it. sometimes they are pretty good at creating a great piece of shit.
