| What's the name of the Rouge Anti-Virus program? If your current AV can't find it,it means it's unreliable. Download Malwarebytes-Anti Malware Spybot Search and Destory SuperAntiSpyware And a better AV. |

 | That's spyware, not a virus. As said above, get Spybot S&D or AdAware (I recommend Spybot). |

| This happened to my last week on a different computer of mine. It was called like xp antivirus or something. My dad got something called rkill and followed some instructions to get rid of it. Malwarebytes is great I recommend it, try looking for the rkill thing in google. Sorry I can't be better help I wasn't there when my dad fixed it. |

| Yes it's probably Windows XP,Vista Anti Virus 2010. Go to Google.com Download rkill and follow the instructions on how to delete it. You might need 2 computers/laptops and a USB Flash Drive. |

| whenever I want to remove something, I go to C:/ProgramFiles/(NameOfAntiVirusHere) and just delete the whole file :3 or you can do it the old fashion way by going to control panel and removing the program |
