Removal Instructions for Antivirus Pro 2009
Title: Antivirus Pro 2009
Also Known as: AntivirusPro2009, AntivirusPro 2009, Antivirus Pro2009
Severity scale:
Antivirus Pro 2009 is a rogue antivirus application that is a clone of a rogue antispyware application called XP Antispyware 2009, oddly enough. Rogue applications are easy to clone because all you need to do is change the appearance of the interface. They are all impotent when it comes to removing any real threats that may be on a computer despite the assurances they may give.
Antivirus Pro 2009 is secretly downloaded onto a computer through a Trojan. Then, it proceeds to deliver false security warnings and attempts to perform phony scans of the user’s computer. The fake scan will only give false results. These fear tactics are used to scare the user into buying the full version of Antivirus Pro 2009. But the full version doesn’t do any good. It will only steal your money, give you a slower computer in return, and give you more malware.
If this rogue has infected your computer remove it immediately. Manual removal can be accomplished by stopping the following process:
AntivirusPro2009.exe
Delete the following registry entries:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\AntivirusPro2009
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\”AntivirusPro2009”
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\AntivirusPro2009
Finally, delete these files:
C:\Program Files\AntivirusPro2009\AntivirusPro2009.exe
C:\Program Files\AntivirusPro2009\AntivirusPro2009.cfg
C:\Program Files\AntivirusPro2009\AVEngn.dll
C:\Program Files\AntivirusPro2009\htmlayout.dll
C:\Program Files\AntivirusPro2009\pthreadVC2.dll
C:\Program Files\AntivirusPro2009\Uninstall.exe
C:\Program Files\AntivirusPro2009\wscui
C:\Program Files\AntivirusPro2009\data
