Rapid Antivirus not found by anti spyware

[Robert A]

Today when I started up I got something called Rapid Antivirus and wanted to know more about it before deleting it, I was recommended to use Malwarebytes and Spyware Doctor to get rid of it. But, they couldn’t find any of those files though they are not hidden and easy to find by myself in the User Start map. How come? They are still here and I will now delete them manually.

hello,
there's only one explanation for this. your security tools are not updated so they don't recognize rapid antivirus as a threat. either you forgot to download updates or rapid antivirus prevents the normal programs to get updates. it's not uncommon for malware to block anti-virus and anti-spyware programs.
