Question
Hello, trying to get rid of Antivirus2009. It will not allow me to access the internet, or install a virus program from CD. Can I delete the virus in safemode, and if so, what am I looking for?
Alberto Gozzi,
Here's a link to a manual removal process.

Also, it is my understanding that the Malwarebytes Anti-Malware application (free edition) can detect and remove it, if you somehow able to access the Internet to download it.
