Now I'm on safe mode with networking disabled scanning with MacAfee to see if it notices anything else. If anyone has any tips to share on this situation I would be very grateful.

The automatic removal tool is a generic antivirus, I think. Use the manual removal thingie.Alex wrote:I tried downloading that but it didn't work, but it never hurts to try again.Paco wrote:http://www.2-spyware.com/remove-antivirus-is.htmlAlex wrote:I ended getting something called "Antivirus IS" on my computer, and it won't let me open up Malwarebytes or MacAfee unless I'm on safe mode.

To kill the process press Ctrl + Alt + Del, select Task Manager, click on the Processes tab and find the task you want to terminate, then click on End Process.
To delete the registry keys use the run menu (Windows key + R), type regedit and delete what you need to.
To delete the file use the Search function in Windows, I guess.
Then copy-paste the directory listed in your address bar, go up one directory and press Shift + Del while having it selected.

I managed to get both Malwarebytes and Spyware Doctor open on normal mode before Antivirus IS started up, so I'm rescanning and such since Spyware Doctor recommended to not scan during safe mode. I did try to run regedit, but an error message came up and said,
"Application cannot be executed. The file regedit.exe is infected. Do you want to activate your antivirus software now?"
I get the same warning message for anything else I try to open, minus internet browsers. Even task manager gets that warning.

Fuck every single time my friend Fae comes up from her depression, her family just has to DRAG HER BACK DOWN
having a suicidal best friend is NOT FUCKING FUN
trying to talk someone down from doing something CRAZY is NOT EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT I'D BE SPENDING MY NIGHT DOING
fuck i'm crying and panicking and I don't know what to do or say and she's so fucking depressed and saying she's hardly got anything to live for and the worst part is i can't think of a counter argument!
She can't get into the Air Force because of her weight, her dad is sending her to FAT CAMP, her mom is DYING, and her dad and step dad keep being HUGE FUCKING DOUCHES TO HER.
Her love life is shot, All her closest friends now live far away(including me)

i just
aaaaaaaagh
I don't know what to do!!!
