I am having serious problems getting rid of this virus. It popped up last night and I immediately ran Trend Micro PC Cillin. It quarantined two files, both called "VBS_FAKEALER.HJ." That didn't help. I found a site that had instructions on how to get rid of it. It got rid of the background hijacker, but not the browser hijacker. That still has a hold on my computer.

I tried going to Trend Micro and AVG last night and this morning. The browser cannot even connect. I've downloaded AVG through C/Net, but it comes back corrupted. This is seriously bugging me. Can anyone give me some advice on how to remove this virus?

  5. Antivirus XP 2008 (or AntivirusXP2008, AntiVirXP08, AntivirusXP 2008) is a rogue antispyware program. This program is a clone of Xp Antivirus, XPAntivirus2008, Antivirus2008, Antivirus 2008. Or you can say that Antivirus XP 2008 is just XPAntivirus2008 by another name. Just like Xp Antivirus, Antivirus XP 2008 uses fake pop up messages, fake security warnings to trick user into buying "full" version of Antivirus XP 2008. Usually users can infect them self with Antivirus XP 2008 through a Trojan, like Zlob. Antivirus XP 2008 usually launches when user starts up Windows. Antivirus XP 2008 can generate tons of ads or pop ups that are very difficult to close. Users should remove Antivirus XP 2008 as soon as possible to safe their privacy and data!
