I have Antivirus 2009 installed by someone who borrowed my laptop and now it won’t go away. I ended the process and deleted all visual evidence of it, yet EVERY time I open IE the first thing I see is “the webpage has been blocked by Antivirus 2009,Update to protect yourself.” How do I get this crap of my computer!?!?!!!!!

Hi I too am not sure of what to delete in the task manager, under the processes tab, there is a list of items under the “image name” none of which say the words: “Virus Heat” so if you could let me know which one it is that I delete, I would be ever so happy! Not to mention I would be able to get rid of the blastard popup!

Go into control panel, Help and support center, “Task Manager” And look at number 1 under Microsoft Knowledge Base. And follow those intructions.
You can then close the Virus Heat Application.
Or just run Regeit HKEY_CURENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Policies/System and set the Value data to 0. If you can’t get it to show up after F3′ing it, just follow the path.

How do you get rid of the pop up that keeps appear from the task bar that say’s System Alert? saying that (System has detected a number of active spyware applications that may impact the performance of your computer. Click the icon to get rid of unwanted spyware by downloading an up-to-date antispyware solution.

I have Norton Internet Security on my computer and I do not have a virus.

I have the same issue as Sue. I can’t access the Task Manager. Not even when I log on as Administrator and in Safe mode.
So, has anybody figured out how to get around that?
The advice is much appriciated.
