Can you please help me get rid of Spyware Protection 2009?
A little while ago this program randomly downloaded itself onto my computer. I found out it’s bad and I reallyyy want to get rid of it. It’s so irritating!
Can someone please help me get rid of it?
But I want to get rid of it without downloading another anti spy thing, if it’s possible. I don’t want to download that type of stuff I’m unfamiliar with.
Please provide working step by step instructions on how to get it off.
Thanks, help if you can.
How to stop pop-ups and remove fake software, spyware, trojans and viruses:
Download, install, update and scan your computer with both Malwarebytes and SuperantiSpyware, delete anything they find, if this fails to completely remove the virus/spyware download then update Avast and run a boot scan (click schedule boot-time scan and restart your PC), all the software below is free and safe to use.
Malwarebytes: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
SuperantiSpyware: http://www.superantispyware.com/
Avast Anti-Virus: http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
To protect your PC in the future you’ll need to install anti-virus software and a firewall, id recommend using Avast and Comodo Pro firewall both are very effective and completely free, you should also switch to Firefox 3 if you are browsing with IE as its much safer and a lot easier to use.

If you are unable to download the above software then its likely you are being redirected or blocked from downloading security software by a trojan called TDSSserv.sys follow the instructions below and you will be able to download Malwarebytes and SuperantiSpyware which will remove your virus.
start > run > type: devmgmt.msc > enter > view > show hidden devices > non-plug and play drivers > TDSSserv.sys > right click > disable > restart computer.
Remember never download anything thats recommend by a pop-up.
