And though some people are complaining about having to pay for the actual removal of the malware after using the free detection, I suppose these same people complain when their car breaks down and after figuring out what is wrong with the car (for free), the mechanic actually wants to be paid to fix the problem! I am attempting to fix my computer now using MBAM and we\'ll see how it goes. I THOUGHT I had it fixed last night but the malware reappeared this morning when I ran another MBAM scan - so maybe I will have to use your product (the product you recommend). By the way, Marc S on July 16, 2012 wrote that he got this infection from attempting to update his Adobe Flash Player from what was really a bogus pop-up message. THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO ME YESTERDAY!!! Everybody should turn off the automatic notifications and just manually check for updates from the software itself. MFG, John in Chicago P.S. I lived in Germany for six years - I played trumpet for the Musical \"Cats\" in Hamburg and then for Disney\'s \"Der Glöckner von Notre Dame\" (Hunchback) in Berlin. I loved my time in your country. Viele Grüße Max,

A message popped up telling me an update was available for Adobe flash player. It even tells you it comes from the actual publisher. Of course its a bogus pop-up message. I clicked ok, and the \"Live Security Platinum\" virus installed. It holds a lot of your computer applications hostage. ....A system restore usually fixes the problem, but this malware prevents a proper system restore. Attempts to delete the virus in normal mode failed. Finally, after an hour of attempting to delete it, it was finally deleted. I started my computer in safe-mode; then I went to \"computer,\" then I clicked on \"program files.\" then I deleted the malware file. then I emptied the trash. Then I restarted my computer. All the applications that were held hostage, were working again. \"Live Security platinum\" was gone from my computer. Bottomline, REFUSE all pop-up messages asking you to update. If you want applications to be updated, click yes in the applications for the computer to check for updates. The pathway for updates should be from your computer to the actual software publishers. The pathway for updates cannot be pop-up messages from the internet to your computer: thats how malware disguises itself. I\'ll tell you how \"Live SEcurity Platinum\" entered my computer.

Of course, some of them are in deed free, but they are a lot less effective, and are not likely to hold information on newest rogues and other computer infections, or offer strong helpdesk features. SpyHunter, on the other hand, can support its users with a remarkable helpdesk. Additionally, we have to disagree with your proclamation that our product is as treacherous as the dangerous computer threats. We can guarantee you that we do not support the vicious malware industry, and we work hard to ensure that all Windows systems are protected against rogue antispyware tools. Moreover, we do not force our customers to do anything, and after a free scan you can either choose our malware removal application, or you can note the malicious infections and remove them manually. For your convenience, we even present manual removal instructions, which require time, dedication and hard work. Without a question, we work to help you, and we hope that you understand our position, and our high expectations to reduce malware incidence with the highest quality product. Dear Sir,

There are dozens of very good FREE softwares out there for folks to use to get rid of this malware. If you ask me, YOU sir, are just as bad as the people who wrote this malware, if you're not actually the author yourself.
