Remove Green Antivirus 2009. Removal instructions

Also known as: GreenAntivirus 2009, Green AV, GreenAntivirus2009

Severity scale:

(72 / 100)

Green Antivirus 2009 is another counterfeiter anti-spyware application, fake spyware remover. Although the main goal of this parasite is the same as other rogue anti-spyware programs, but GreenAntivirus 2009 also cares about environmental protection. It claims to be the first anti-virus program which cares about the nature and donates 2$ from every sold program. Obviously this is just another way to give more credibility to this fake application.

GreenAV can be downloaded from the website that promotes this rogue, or it might be installed automatically without user's permission. However, after infection Green Antivirus2009 performs fake scan and floods system with many obsessive alerts about infections and other security or privacy issues. Also it can decrease system's performance and hijack browsers. The worst is that Green Antivirus 2009 is an infection itself, but shows fake notices about infections like Spyware.IEMonster and other similar. What is more, trial version is unable to remove all those infections, so user is advertised to purchase full copy in order to have a clean system. But the best option is to eliminate Green AV from the system as soon as possible.

Note msra.exe located in the Documents & Settings userlocal settingstempwbec2.tmp (sp) folder. This is a bogus file that takes the name of a legit Microsoft file.
