I had the Antivirus soft virus on my computer and was able to remove it (most of it anyway) using Malwarebytes.
Remove Antivirus Soft (Uninstall Guide)
I am having some issues after Antivirus soft virus is removed:
1> IE 8 does not work without a proxyserver. When I go into options and "Use a proxy server for your LAN", it does work. I would rather use a proxy server.
2>> In order to remove the folder, I needed to go into msconfig/Startup and disable the virus before it started so I could run Malwarebytes. After running Malwarebytes, the file was still in the Startup list.
The file is:
qvxdpoktssd. The command is located in the folder "lctahartv" which is located in the Apllication Data folder . When I go to that folder. It is empty. Could the file be hidden?
The location is: SOFTWARE\Mircrosoft\Windows\current version\run. I go into regedit, but can not find it.
When I start Windows now, I receive the following message:
"You have used the System Configuration Utility to make changes to the way
Windows Starts.
The System Configuration Utility is currently in Diagnostic or Selective
Startup mode, causing this message to be displayed and the utility to run
every time Windows Starts.
Choose the Normal Startup mode on the General tab to start Windows normally."
