The number of variations of XP antivirus causes much confusion amongst PC users. The removal instructions posted on many forums are suitable for particular types of infection, and may not work for all victims. Regretfully, I still don’t know if there’s a software that get rids of it completely. Additional manual tricks are always needed – partially because some malicious files are left in the system.

The registry file from the URL in the above post. If you save it to your desktop you can double-click on it to execute the registry fix. So when you download the file, save it to the desktop. When you are at the step to reboot, reboot and once back to the desktop, double-click the file and it will fix the registry for you. (it removes any instance of reference to the program).

You mentioned: “When you get back to the desktop you run a Registry script that removes any entries found from the XP Antivirus software. Reboot again and youâ€™re done! System fixed!”
How do you run this? Where? Which commands?
