Hi there,\n\nHere's some detailed information on the WinFixer infection:\nhttp://virusinfo.prevx.com/viruscenter.asp?returnpage=default&GRP=4745300015\n\nThe best and easiest way to remove this is by installing the Free Trial of Prevx1.

You Will have to remove manually. Find out what is the folder where the program is installed. Search the registry for that folder (and maybe executable) and remove the keys/values that refer it. (backup everything you remove). Then delete the folder.\n\nAn easier way is to just remove the folder, then run a cleaner (like CClean), which will clean the orphaned registry keys and shortcuts.

Windows Installer is used by a number of legitimate applications.  I wouldn't remove it unless you have a very specific reason to do so.

Try downloading the Windows Installer Clean Up utility from this website:  http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301\n\nIt gets rid of everything associated with the program that add/remove programs misses.

You cant, the only thing you can do is uninstall it. I would go to add/remove programs and remove the last update that put this stupid check into your computer. I have several computers and I used a CD that I PAID for and used it on all my computers when the recovery discs didnt work, and now I get that too. \n\nWindows update put that new security check in. I would just remove it or I would reformat and install windows all over again, and I would omit that security update next time.\n\nMicrosoft asks you if you want to install the updates and they usually show you what the update is during their update process. I would just omit it. I have omitted it in my other computers. The one that had that warning all the time, I just removed the update.\n\nTry this link:\nhttp://www.sinhack.net/GenuineAdvantage/\n\nEdit: I saw your link but I wouldnt delete .dll files cuz it could mess up your computer. Playing with registry keys is kinda risky too. If it works for you, let me know, but I wouldnt recommend it. I would just remove it using add/remove to be safe.
