    Thanks to Gerald A He helped me get rid of Windows Antivirus 2009.
    He was so patient and came on my computer with such care &
    help that I was astonished. Think he should be well compensated
    for all his knowledge.  MM

    I'm glad to read that support was able to rid your PC of the infection. As a OneCare user, if an infection makes it past, OneCare support is the best solution for most users.

    Was Gerald A a OneCare help guy? I have the same virus/adware problem (antivirus 2009) and my phone service from OneCare has not helped.

     If your initial contact did not resolve the problem, ask for the problem to be escalated or:
     

    If you are in North America, you can call 866-727-2338 for help with virus and spyware infections. See http://www.microsoft.com/protect/support/default.mspx  for details.  For international information, see your local subsidiary Support site.

    If you want to try to remove it yourself, there are many variants of this malware. These instructions cover one variant. The site hosts information on many of the other, too:
