To I Hate AntiVirus 2009:
i m once infected with antivirus 2009 (ok i admit that i installed it). what i did was a little bit extreme but heres what i did:
-click on the little Antivirus 2009 icon and let it scan my pc.
-furiously click on the scanning window to try to make it freeze.
-when the End Now window thing pops up click end now.
-now you exited the antivirus 2009 and you’ll notice the icon is gone.
-go to program files-> antivirus 2009
-delete it
-go to the recycling bin and throw in in to the black hole of cyberspace forever!!!
if it doesn’t work tell me by email amysydney@hotmail.com
sincerely yours and a hater for all malware (now i m infected with IE AntiVirus!!!-damnit)

thanks this is reeally helpful, I am trying to get rid of antivirus 360 and your tips are very helpful. if your trying to do this in windows vista. go to your desktop, rightclick and click on ‘personalize’ then your control panel should appear and you should be in the personalize section. In the bottome left hand corner it should say ’see also’ then underneath ‘taskbar and start menu, simply change your start menu to ‘classic’ and then go to search ‘for files or folders’ and in the right hand top corner underneath the search bar it should have an arrow and the words ‘advanced serach’ click on that leave all other sections blank apart from ‘location’ and change that to ‘local hard drives (c:; D;) make sure you tick the included non-indexed… bow the serach will be slower but otherwise i couldnt find the file. I hope thiis helps. email me if you would like to know anything else (lararianne@hotmail.com)

Thanks Amy for the tip about freezing a running program. I wish I read it earlier.
