Antivirus System Pro

First topic message reminder :

Hello

I have a laptop running Windows XP. Yesterday morning I got the Antivirus System Pro virus somehow and tried running the Malwarebytes program, or any program (including task manger) and everytime I do it comes up with a "System Warning" alerting me that program is infected, which I know is just the virus talking. My next logical step would be trying to run the removal program in Safe Mode, but am hesitant to do so until I get your advice. I would also furnish a HijackThis report, but I would think my attempts to install that so I can run a report would just end up with that false "System Warning".

Thank you so much to whichever kind soul helps me in this ordeal.

Hello.
How is the machine running now?

The machine seems to be running much better than it was when it was infected. I also took the steps to uninstalling the old and outdated antivirus program I got through my university years ago and replaced it with AVG9 and made sure it was up to date and did a scan and came up clean.

I also removed the Winpk Filter Miniport from my system and have had good internet service since.

Are there any further steps you or Jay would like me to do? I seem to have shaken a lot of garbage from my system, and this has seemed to save my laptop.

If there isn't anything in particular I need to do past what I have already done, I would like to thank you, and especially Jay, for helping me with this problem. You guys are patient and really care about working through people's computer problems. I am strapped for cash at the moment, but hopefully one day soon I can throw this site a small donation. You guys deserve it.

Also, can I remove all the programs I was told to download to the desktop? I plan on keeping the logs either way just in case.

Hello.
You can remove everything we used now. That should do it.

Thank you so much again. I guess this closes my case. Thank you.
