Security Tool Virus

[Randomme]

Hi, I was up fixing my friends' auntie's laptop when they asked me to fix another laptop which had 37 viruses (not really). They accidently downloaded Security tool which pretends to say you have viruses and they ask you to purchase the program to remove the viruses though they only want access to your bank details to access money.

I know i need Malwarebytes to remove it. I have downloaded it and it automaticly puts it into Temporary Folder. I checked the Temp folder, to find it wasnt there :S any help?

change it so it doesn't save to the temp folder?

It wont let me :( and when the download completes the box disappears even though i checked the box so it doesnt.

If it helps its vista.... The Program wont let me open Windows Defender..... or the Task Manager (CTRL + SHIFT + ESC thing).

Sorry if I seem angry, it's really tempermental

1.Print out these instructions as we may need to close every window that is open later in the fix.


2.Before we can do anything we must first end the processes that belong to Security Tool so that it does not interfere with the cleaning procedure. To do this, download the following file to your desktop.

With the temporary folder it would be because you press run file sin that folder normally get deleted within 1hr.
