i awoke to this virus when my friend was browsing the net.
as soon as i saw “AVKiller Unregistered” pop up, i knew that wasn’t a real anti-virus i had on my computer, so i ran Antivir and Ad-Aware overnight, they found a few problems but when they performed their actions, there was no change. So i tried opening Firefox on my account to find a manual fix for this, only problem was, now none of my programs would open. The weird part is, my mom’s account on the computer worked just fine except that it forgot our preferred program for the internet, so i had to change it to Firefox.
That’s how I found Spyzooka and downloaded AVKiller remover.
Thanks for the help!
I thought I would never get rid of that stupid AVKiller. Now with SpyZooka, it’s history. My other spyware removers didn’t get rid of it, but this did! And doesn’t hog memory!
