5 min read

This thread's last reply is from August 10, 2008, 4:57 PM UTC. Software, malware, and removal-tool advice below may be out of date — treat specific steps and download links with caution.

I think I have the AntiVirus 2008 virus. I have a blue screen on the back of my computer that says "Warning: Spyware detected on your computer" I have had one pop-up that wants me to install AntiVirus 2008. I just clicked out of it. Is there any way I can remove this or is my computer ruined. I have included my HijackThis log below. Please help.

  • If you wish to find out whether the one you're using does click here.

Please note: Even if you are using a "safe" P2P programme, it is only the programme that is safe. You will be sharing files from uncertified sources, and these are often infected. The bad guys use P2P filesharing as a major conduit to spread their wares.

Remember that no matter how clean the program you're using for Peer-to-Peer filesharing may be, it offers no guarantees regarding the cleanliness of files you may choose to download. All files available via Peer-to-Peer filesharing carry a high risk, particularly those that offer you illegitimate methods of using legitimate software programs without paying for them. Any program or file that offers you the ability to access non-freeware programs at no cost, e.g., pirated software and/or cracks/key generators for gaining access to legitimate software, is 100% guaranteed to contain malware.

Here is some information that looks at the rates of infection:
