Completely
Remove XPAntivirus Spyware From Your Computer... Continued
XPAntivirus Removal Step 6. Once the smitrem tool has finished,
the bulk of the remove XPAntivirus process is complete. We now have to
stop those annoying alert popups from appearing so we can delete the XPAntivirus
files that create them. To do this, press the "ctrl" + "alt"
+ "del" keys on your keyboard at the same time to enter the
Task Manager. Click on the "Processes" tab.
You are
now looking at a list of every process running on your computer. One (or more)
of them is causing the XPAntivirus popups to appear on your screen. Look through
the list of running processes on your computer and compare it to the processes
below. If you find any matches, highlight the process and click the "End
Task" button. Once you have ended the task, the popup virus alerts should
stop and the icon creating them should disappear from your system tray.
Processes
to End:
- xpantivirusinstaller.exe
- xpantivirus.exe
- uninst.exe
XPAntivirus Removal Step 7. Now you have to look for some XPAntivirus
files and attempt to remove them. There are many variants of XPAntivirus,
so you may find some of these files, all of them, or none of them. Click
on Start and then click on Run. In the Run box type "c:\windows\system32"
without the quotes and press the OK button. If the window that opens says
that the files are hidden, click on Show the Contents of the folder. Look
for any of the XPAntivirus files listed below and remove them. It is
easiest if you switch your folder view to "List" for this process.
Delete
any of these files:
- stickrep.dll
- suprox.dll
- xenadot.dll
- sivudro.dll
- stickrep.dll.bad

SpyFalcon
Removal Step 8. Now you can reboot your computer to exit Safe Mode.
*note* Some users have reported that
SpyFalcon has continually reinfected their computers after it has
been successfully removed. To prevent this from
happening to you, we recommend that you download and install the
FREE Google Pack. The Google Pack contains FREE essential software
which includes one of the best applications on the Internet for
removing spyware - Adaware Personal Edition. Downloading and installing
the Google Pack over a high speed connection will take about 5 minutes,
but it is WELL WORTH THE WAIT!! Failure to complete this step will
almost certainly result in reinfection! |
