    Hello.
    So I'm totally new, not to the site, but to this forum.

    I have this antispyware program that won't uninstall and cannot be exited/closed at all without turning the screen blue and restarting the program.


    I have included the 2 logs that I found for this software. The following is the site that I downloaded the file from. http://pc-antispyware.com/

    I have gone to Control Panel to uninstall, have tried uninstalling the program with their own uninstall feature, and have tried several adware/malware remover programs that do not seem to work.

    I have read and followed the following instructions from majorgeeks...--->http://forums.majorgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35407 and from this other section from to clean the pc.

    I am not sure what else to do from here. I would like for this program to be removed but am not sure how anymore.

    Please help.

    Welcome to Major Geeks!

    If you have followed the instructions in the READ & RUN ME FIRST, you should be attaching the logs that were requested in it. Please do not post any logs in line like you did in your first message.

    Hi Chaslang.
    Sorry for the inline text thing in my original post.

    But I went through the steps again from the READ & RUN ME FIRST section.
    I have this "PC-ANTISPYWARE" thing that I CANNOT get rid of.
    I just ran the MBAM and it found the rougue spyware, but once I clicked on the section to remove all the infected files, my screen went blue and then it restarted Windows again.

    This happens anytime I try to uninstall, close, exit, etc. the "pc-antispyware" file.

    Here are the logs from Malwarebytes Antimalware. One is from the quick scan...but the one that lists the pc antispyware is on the full scan log. (hopefully I did it right this time)

    What else can I do to remove the unwanted adware?

    Please help

    Hi daffyswahoo,

    There is a reason for there being a collection of scanning programs in the READ & RUN ME. In order for Chaslang to help you, he needs to see all of the logs from the READ & RUN ME. Start at the beginning and go through the whole procedure. If something doesn't work, like MalwareBytes, make a note of it and continue on with the next thing. Do not stop until you've completed all of the instructions. Then attach the requested logs.

    You need to follow ALL of the instructions in the READ ME from beginning to end in the order written. I'm not sure what order you are following but you still have not finished and attach all of the requested logs. You have only attach 2 out of 4. Unless you post all 4 logs, there is nothing more we can do for you.
