God damn you, fraud antiviruses.

Happened to my cousin, he was listening to music on a site and somehow the virus installed itself and called it "Anti Virus Pro 2010." We've removed it in safe mode and it reinstalled itself. So handicapped.

One time I got an msn virus, it was actually extremely fun removing it. I got to go into the registry, clear some values and then I made my own program that deleted the virus' files because it wouldn't let me through explorer or command prompt. I hope I get another chance to remove a stubborn virus again someday!

I have yet to see a single tech problem not be solved by a trip to google.
But just to make it easy, here is the first result for that search and what I was hoping you'd find:

Yes, I Googled it. I wasn't sure if you were referring to the download at the top of one of the pages.

If it is something you can't remove even during safemode then the only thing that could keep it hidden is a rootkit.
