Hi,
I tried to uninstall Vista security 2011 by the instructions by just cannot make it work.
I already have malwarebyte and spyware doctor on my computer. When I start my computer on safe mode with networking, unable the LAN thing in IE, I still cannot open any of these program to remove the virus.
I tried to remove it manually but ending the process reh.exe (I believe it’s the Vista thing) and try to run regedit. Everytime I try to open or run something, Vista Security 2011 keeps on appearing. What else can I do to remove it? I try desperately everyway and still can’t make it work. Thank you in advance for your help.
