You mean you want to use Microsoft's malicious software removal tool to get rid of the virus.  My first recommendation is don't use any of Microsoft's tools.  Instead, get AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition, http://free.grisoft.com/ and use it to remove the virus.  That is, if you don't already have Norton or other anti-virus application and if you do then it should be able to remove it.

I use an anti-virus program that costs nothing at all. It's called ClamWin and is available from:\nwww.sourceforge.net

Norton is useless. There's a good list of free virus removal tools here, also has some good info on how to avoid stuff like this.http://www.basicspywaretips.com/getridofspyware.html

Do you know what kind of virus it is? If you just want a virus remover in general I suggest AVG It's completely free and it works GREAT! \n\nYou can get it at www.grisoft.com It's an antivirus software :)

This one was a real pain to get rid of when my wife ran across it.  The article I'm linking to at the bottom was a big help.\n\nYou will need to download the files they recommend, reboot in safe mode, run their tools and possibly (as I had to do) delete several dll's by hand (or rename them if you can't delete) then run ad-aware, spybot, windows startup inspector reboot in normal mode and run an online virus scanner (such as pandsoftware.com).\n\nVery frustrating but I think that just about did it.\n\nGood luck.

Go to "Control Panel" through the start menu. Then select "Add or Remove programs". Look for your Win fixer 06 and then delete it. Also you can search the program through wizard and delete any remaining crap.

This means winfixer has been installed on your computer. You can check add/remove programs but I doubt you will find it. If you do, uninstall. If not, you can install adware-virtumundo removal tool. It is suggested by McAfee. You can find the link to it at http://forums.mcafeehelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=57049

find where it installs itself, then go to that folder or the place in the registry and delete it (regedit)\n\nI dont recommend it\n\nIt's best to scan with several virus/spyware programs. There's several online ones free that you can use. I like panda and bitdefender best because they've found the most viruses. Adaware is best for removing spyware.\nhttp://www.jimmyr.com/security.php

Let me tell you that AntiViruses won't work, AVG, McAfee, Avast, whatever. They don't work.  I'd like to also add that many products on the net claiming that it removes WinFixer is actually that product again. You have 2 options, you can either use System Restore or follow these steps:\n\n1. Download http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/ProcessExplorer.mspx\n\n# Reboot the infected machine\n# Launch the VirusScan On-Demand Scanner (ODS), or the command-line scanner, but don't initiate the scan yet\n# Run Process Explorer and suspend the Explorer.exe, Winlogon.exe, and rundll32.exe processes (right-click on these process names and choose suspend)\n# Scan & clean with the current DAT files and engine (the Window launched in step 3 above) [there will be clean failures, that is expected]\n# Physically power the machine off and back on.(a hard reset is required as Windows will not shutdown without Winlogon.exe running, and resuming that process will revert the changes made by the scanner).\n\nTo avoid getting infected again, add www.winfixer.com to your Firewall Block list.
