From: "kraway"

| I was recently surfing the web and now I seem to have a new antivirus
| software working on my machine. The name is XP Antivirus ver. 2.4. It
| always wants to scan my machiine but won't correct any bad files unless I
| purchase it first. I tried to unistall it but when I restarted my machine it
| is back again. My normal AVG antivirus software is not finding any bad files
| but this new one does. How do I get rid of it?
