[QUOTE="Gord Bulger, post: 875313, member: 67833"] Personal Anti-Virus is one of many "rogue" anti-virus programs. It gets installed by you clicking on something that usually looks like a Microsoft pop-up for a windows update. They go to great lengths to try and make it appear that it is a legitimate Microsoft download. You have actually allowed it onto your PC, that is why AVG did not pick it up. Once installed, it usually cripples your anti-virus and many other removal programs, so that it cannot be removed. Go Google "Personal Anti-virus removal" and read some of the sites. It can be quite simple or very difficult to remove. Do not buy any programs or use any programs that claim they will fix it..... don't waste your $$$. In the future be very careful about what you click on, if there is a "yes" and "No" box, just try and use the "X" in the corner to close the dialogue box......sometimes even no means yes to these slimeballs! I don't know why these idiots are allowed to use this "gorilla" marketing tactic.... What you see running showing you how infected your PC is, is not even your PC, it is just a script running, trying to scare you into parting with your $$.. [/QUOTE]
