Fake Antivirus

[redskull224]

Hey,

I was just minding my own business when "Defense Center" starts running and tries to get to remove mcafee... then it disables my task manager, lol by the admin which I am... I used spybot right away to kill the process, but I don't think I got rid of the problem yet...

This happened earlier in the week as well as browser redirections. I got a new host doc and deleted any backups.

Is this windows security center for real? because it seems pretty mal to me. Or I guess WSC is infected...

please someone help me:sad:

I am also disabled from control.exe and there are a bunch of files that want me to "open with" type prompt... which they normally do not require....
Once my spybot scan finished I fised the problems (see attached pic)
then i opened secure shredder and destroyed the new files and folders that the mal/trojan made...

After doing those last procedures i now have access to taskmanager and other things XD

I dont know if you want dds and stuff. Do you guys have any other ideas of what can be done?

Yes, it is the same computer. Sorry I made a new thread and making things confusing. What should I do?
