... [Press] <Ctrl> <Alt> <DELete> keys all @ once quickly then release

Why don't just install MalwareBytes - they have it in database:
... "SSHGuy" the topic thread is: "Internet Security 2010 removal " ... its not a problem thread but a solution.
... as there have been a lot of problems with this impersonator malware.
... especially as you cannot use executable "exe" programs which are disabled in the registry!
... thought one might of figured that out!

... "mavis007" don't understand why Malwarebytes is not a solution
.... second - all sites you gave advice malwarebytes as well
.... third - http://www.myantispyware.com/2009/0... if malware won't allow to install
.... fourth - you never know what files exactly will malware create - most time random - the same with registry keys - manual solution most time waste of time (it can be av.exe, 1231.exe and many others - just a little modification of Internet Security 2010
.... fifth - malwarebytes search othe parameters of the file and it will find it if it is in database
... thought one might of figured that out! - rude from your side - you really think you know everything?
... I'm newbie on computing.net but I participate on other forums for several years - don't be rude guys.
"...Why don't just install MalwareBytes..." "SSHGuy"... I did 'nt mean to be rude "one might of figured that out"
... just a rhetorical answer if "you really think you know everything".
... you are most welcome to computing.net "SSHGuy"
