XP Antivirus Protection
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?

In the future, please don't multipost - if you need to post to multiple groups, it's best to crosspost instead, by posting a single message to a handful of relevant groups (separate the NG names with commas) so that everyone can follow the thread. Multiposting wastes everyone's time, including yours, and may lead to your actually getting *less* help rather than more.
