Removal Instructions:
Autorun:
Please use Spybot-S&D (http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=spybotsd), RunAlyzer (http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=runalyzer) or msconfig.exe to remove the following autorun entries.
Entries named "VirusKillerPro" and pointing to "<$PROGRAMFILES>\VirusKillerPro\VirusKillerPro.exe".
Installed Software List:
You can try to uninstall products with the names listed below; for items identified by other properties or to avoid malware getting active again on uninstallation, use Spybot-S&D (http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=spybotsd) or RunAlyzer (http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=runalyzer) to locate and get rid of these entries.
Products that have a key or property named "{CC6D6BCF-1255-40BA-844C-90100267BD7C}_is1".
Files:
Please use Windows Explorer or another file manager of your choice to locate and delete these files.
The file at "<$COMMONPROGRAMS>\VirusKillerPro\VirusKillerPro.lnk".
The file at "<$COMMONPROGRAMS>\VirusKillerPro\VirusKillerPro\EULA.lnk".
The file at "<$COMMONPROGRAMS>\VirusKillerPro\VirusKillerPro\Web VirusKillerPro.lnk".

Make sure you set your file manager to display hidden and system files.

You will have to use a global search for files without a name specified. Be extra careful, because just the name might not be enough to identify files!
Important: There are more files that cannot be safely described in simple words. Please use Spybot-S&D (http://www.safer-networking.org/index.php?page=spybotsd) to remove them.
