Hi All,
My daugthers laptop has been infected by a nasty virus/malware called security suite.

I have run a full scan in safe mode with AVG and adaware but cannot remove this.

There are hints on some web sites as to how to remove this but I am warry of these sites as they could be infected.

Has anyone else come across this virus and how have they dealt with it.

regards

Alan

Download Malwarebytes from here http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-A ... 04572.html

If you cannot do this on the laptop then download it to another computer and then pop it on a USB stick so you can install it on the laptop.

BEFORE you install the program restart the laptop in "safe" mode - to do this switch laptop on and hit the F8 key a few times and you should get a list of options - pick safe mode.

Once laptop up install Malwarebytes and let it run a FULL scan - when finished it will give you a result of infections so tell it to remove all.

Restart laptop and see if it is now cured.
