    This didn't work for me, Antispyware Soft closes it immediately and claims it's infected. This doesn't work, at least not anymore. I'm guessing they upgraded the virus.

    Hello Ben,

    The situation that you are experiencing is where Antispyware Soft, like many other rogues, constantly updates. Even worst, you could have a rootkit which regenerates meaning it can recreate itself after you attempt to remove it. We try to track new files like this on a daily basis. However, there is a feature on SpyHunter called the Spyware Helpdesk where one of our technicians can create a custom fix that is transmitted back to SpyHunter. All you would have to do is update SpyHunter.

    Hi,
    i was infected with that bloody fake anti spyware program and after following deleting the registary and the location of the folder it has gone, for now. however, i had to start up my computor in safe mode. if i didnt do it then the spyware would not let me load anything up. But anyway, i started my computor in safe mode and ran 'regedit' and then found the registary listed, however i didnt find the AVScan entry but i did find an AVGuide folder, which had lots of random string entries in it. So i delted them and now it seems to be gone. Thanks for the help!!! I thought that i was going to have to format my hard drive, which has around 600gb of data!!!. Thanks very much.

    HOW TO REMOVE ANTISPYWARE

    Here's a little tidbit. the random string that anti spyware soft generates usually ends in a tssd.

    And it blocks the task manager. But if you go to C:/WINDOWS/System32 and find taskmng or taskmng.exe and change the name to iexplore or iexplore.exe, then you should be able to open up task manager. From there, go to processes and find the one process that's a random string ending in tssd and terminate it. It temporarily stops anti spyware soft

    I finally got it cleared. It took doing the regedit and then removing the corporate version of Norton I had, installing the free version of AVG, and running three virus scans with it fixing errors on the first two. I doubt I would have ever been successful without the comments from this web site.

    Thanks for all the info. I somehow got rid of this antispyware soft by manually shutting down my computer then starting it in safemode and restoring to an early time. Don't know for sure it's gone but it seems to be working fine without any of those annoying messages popping up every two seconds.

Threat Scorecard
?
The ESL Threat Scorecard is an assessment report that is given to every malware threat that has been collected and analyzed through our Malware Research Center. The ESL Threat Scorecard evaluates and ranks each threat by using several metrics such as trends, incidents and severity over time.

In addition to the effective scoring for each threat, we are able to interpret anonymous geographic data to list the top three countries infected with a particular threat. The data used for the ESL Threat Scorecard is updated daily and displayed based on trends for a 30-day period. The ESL Threat Scorecard is a useful tool for a wide array of computer users from end users seeking a solution to remove a particular threat or security experts pursuing analysis and research data on emerging threats.

Each of the fields listed on the ESL Threat Scorecard, containing a specific value, are as follows:

Ranking: The current ranking of a particular threat among all the other threats found on our malware research database.

Threat Level: The level of threat a particular computer threat could have on an infected computer. The threat level is based on a particular threat's behavior and other risk factors. We rate the threat level as low, medium or high. The different threat levels are discussed in the SpyHunter Risk Assessment Model.

Infected Computer: The number of confirmed and suspected cases of a particular threat detected on infected computers retrieved from diagnostic and scan log reports generated by SpyHunter's Spyware Scanner.

% Change: The daily percent change in the frequency of infected computers of a specific threat. The formula for percent changes results from current trends of a specific threat. An increase in the rankings of a specific threat yields a recalculation of the percentage of its recent gain. When a specific threat's ranking decreases, the percentage rate reflects its recent decline. For a specific threat remaining unchanged, the percent change remains in its current state. The % Change data is calculated and displayed in three different date ranges, in the last 24 hours, 7 days and 30 days. Next to the percentage change is the trend movement a specific malware threat does, either upward or downward, in the rankings. Each level of movement is color coded: a green up-arrow (∧) indicates a rise, a red down-arrow (∨) indicates a decline, and a brown equal symbol (=) indicates no change or plateaued.

Top 3 Countries Infected: Lists the top three countries a particular threat has targeted the most over the past month. This data allows computer users to track the geographic distribution of a particular threat throughout the world.
Ranking: N/A
Threat Level: 10
Infected Computers: 136
