No, see what you do is send a bazillion turkish dollars to my bank account in the Cayman Islands and I'll let you subscribe to this software which automatically dings your credit card for another bazillion each month so you can use your computer while I send you a slew of useless pop-up ads and a mountain of SPAM . . . dunno the software title but unless it's from a recognized vendor like Symantec or McCafee or AVG or Avast or some such it's probably malware.  Symantec and McAfee have not faired well in head-to-head competition with Avast or AVG.  Most legit anti-virus products should identify and remove malware if it is there.  Start by downloading a legit product and let it do its thing.  If that doesn't work there are other more drastic choices.

Answer 3

Antivirus 2009 is an unwanted program, from the authors of Antivirus 2008 . These applications have resembling interface and "features". After stealth installation, Antivirus 2009 will show tonns of fake spyware\adware detection messages and offers to remove reported threats (after you purchase commercial version). But in real Antivirus 2009 is not a spyware cleaner, it's just an imitation of spyware remover. Antivirus 2009 can also slow your computer and cause system errors and crashes. Remove Antivirus 2009 using manual removal instructions (for advanced users) or removal tool.
