How do I permanently remove Security Tool from my computer?
I tried removing this virus by downloading an online spyware which would remove it, but the Security Tools denied it and claims it is a virus and so it will reject the download. Are there any other ways
you can’t, why don’t you buy it?? it’s already on your computer :D

1. go to C:WindowsSystem32 folder, copy taskmgr.exe and rename copy to iexplore.exe . Run it.
(if you can’t, download process explorer, rename it to iexplore.exe and copy to usb disk. run from usb disk on infected pc). Stop numerical processes, like 235235623 . Note down their location.
2. Run hitman pro. Do a scan, activate (for free), remove what it finds. Reboot, Run it again. Repeat (1-2) again, till hitmanpro finds nothing.
3. Run Spyware Doctor, delete what it finds, If file, stopped at 1 is still there, rename and delete it.

Very similar to Wendy’s responce, but if going into the registry is a bit intense for you, I swear by this freeware program (meaning verified no spyware or virus, free to download and use, forever.)

You will need to follow the first few steps of Wendy’s response as well by going into task manager and stopping the processes. If you have a problem with the program continuing to start itself back up, as many viruses do, you can also boot into safe mode.
