XP Internet Security 2010 is a rogue anti-spyware program from the same family as Internet Security 2010. XP Internet Security 2010 is usually surreptitiously installed onto a user's computer by a malicious Trojan. On installation, XP Internet Security 2010 will register itself in the Windows registry so that it automatically runs every time the system is started up. XP Internet Security 2010 will also modify system settings, resulting in certain security applications being disabled. XP Internet Security 2010 will then conduct bogus system scans and report false malware infections as well as display fake security alerts and annoying pop-ups. Users should ignore these security alerts as they are fake and only displayed in order to trick users into purchasing the useless XP Internet Security 2010 application.

AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE PERPETRATOR, CANCELLED THE CREDIT CARD I USED AND ADVISED THE CREDIT CARD COMPANY NOT TO HONOR REQUEST FOR PAYMENT.
IT WAS POSSIBLY EVEN CHARGED TWICE WHEN UNCERTAIN RECEIVED.
NOW - HOW DO I GET RID OF THE ACTUAL POPPING UP/DEMAND FOR ATTENTION OF THIS
RASCAL?

there is a way to remove this nasty rogue anti virus if you run your system restore to a earlier time it should be removed

doesn't work Reply

If you do what Nam says, it'll come back in a few days depending on how far back the restore was. Or at least in my experience.

I found that just downloading and installing the latest windows security updates got rid of this for me.

I am contacting you on my laptop. My desktop comupter is infected with the XP Internet Security Malware and I can no longer even get out on the internet using my desktop. The malware blocks any access. Is there a CD that can be purchased and mailed to me that I can install to remove this malware? If not, what manual instructions do you recommend that I follow to remove this software.

Regards,
