to those that need help, this virus is a freakin ***** and i almost lost hope but i figured it out.
the latest version of 'systemsecurity' virus changes your desktop backround black saying "warning your computer is infected with spyware". this is unique from the older versions. this version also disables you from running any programs and accessing crtl-alt-delete. it runs a fake anti virus program in hopes youll send them your credit card info.
apparently it also keeps you from booting into safe mode or restore point. but I did not attempt this.
what I did was as soon as windows xp was in the process of loading the desktop i hit ctrl-alt-delete and deleted two different processes running that were named random numbers (3378475, 5455733). you have to be quick in closing these processes. after these are closed you can run most of your applications, but if you try searching for "how to remove system security" on the web the virus will redirect you. if you try to run anti spyware the virus will crash it.
first of all go into start menu-run-msconfig-and disable the two random numbers in the startup tab. also disable liser.
now download superantispyware. you have to rename the installer application after you download it. install the program. rename the actual excecutable of superantispyware to anything you want. run it, and remove.
malwarebytes is a great program, but did not detect the newest version of this virus, surprisingly. update avg as well, and run it, and it will catch the remaining scraps.
YOURE WELCOME =)
also, am i allowed to mention the website i got this virus from? let me just say i got it because it was the first time in forever that i actually used internet explorer to view this website, and in return my computer got raped.
