I have encountered a virus tonight that I can not get rid of....I have ran AVG, Malware bytes and various other virus cleaners but they just cant get rid of the dang virus...Note this is not on my computer but please try to help me. Its for a really good friend of mine who happens to sign my checks at work... any ways its called Anti Spyware 2009 its like XP Antivirus 2008's evils little brother... The thing has made the computer so slow that I cant even turn on the Internet or when I go task manager its super slow....The virus is using all the systems resources... My friend asked if it would be best just to reinstall his xp and I said I would make sure with "freinds" (you guys)? He has the windows restore disk from when he got the computer and if you guys could direct me to a good guide on how to restore a computer that would be perfect unless its a stupid proof thing I have never had to worry about it on my computer...please give me a little information on how to do it is what I'm saying.
Thank you +rep to those who at least attempt to help.
