OMG! Thank you so much for the removal guide, I finally got that Antivirus Suite off my computer. I will probably be buying Malwarebytes for the "real time" protection.

Thanks again!!

I was able to go through these steps, which is better than I have been able to do with any other instructions. However, when I log back in in the normal mode, it is still there. This is completely frustrating. Anyone have any suggestions?

I do not know how much to thank you for making this tutorial..... and I registered here just to say a big thank you!

Other websites keep telling me to try using spyware doctor and all those rubbish but it didn't work until I tried malwarebytes like you recommended.

Cheers mate!

Subject: Removal of Antivirus Suite:

My laptop has Windows 7 Ultimate. I Picked up that Antivirus Suite and just tried to delete it by following your step by step instructions. However, I have gone thru the steps twice and both times nothing happened. Am I still doing something wrong? This is the second time I have picked up this miserable virus. The first time my hard drive was completely erased and the technician reinstalled Windows 7 for me. Any more advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in Advance

Computer shutting down during scan

Post by Nkopec01 on 10/04/10, 08:57 pm

Hello,

I am trying to follow the instructions above to get rid of the Antivirus Suite virus.

Each time I am running the scan, my computer shuts down completely -- either happens after 2 of 4 minutes of the scan.

What should I do?! This is so frustrating!

Thank you.

Remove Antivirus Suite - Thanks!

Post by patdante on 11/04/10, 03:52 am

Thank you so much for your accurate information of how to get rid of the virus I know as "Antivirus Suite"! I contacted Norton and they were willing to help me for $139.99. What a joke. You guys are great. What a relief to know that virus is now history! Malwarebytes is where my family and I will be purchasing our antivirus programs from now on !
