ANTISPYWARE 2012 , ANTIVIRUS 2012 ,XP ANTIVIRUS 2012 ....

My normally trusty BTnetprotect plus failed to pick up the really nasty trojan and if you get it or see it ( especially if you download files ie movies or such - not that i condone that sort of thing ) here is a quick fire way to bust its ass ...

if you have malewarebytes on your pc it will block this as well as stop you using internet explorer to find a fix ..

register with the fake key ..
create the notepad file..
run it , and THEN you can run your anti malware software which will find the infected file ..

In 2010 this took over my dads pc and forced a complete re install of windows ..

Avast free version isnt a bad bit of kit ...
The problem however lies in the fact that this trojan is an executable file like vwn.exe and prevents any third party software ie malwarebytes or even netprotect plus from functioning as it flags them as a virus or infected file ...
trying to connect to the net is impossible unless you fool it by clicking on the 'purchase XP ANTIvirus' link .. then you can open a new tab ..

here is what malwarebytes found after a full scan after following the recovery steps :



lets hope a reboot gets rid of it all
