I downloaded Spyware Doctor and ran full scans, it had not identified the Win 7 Protection virus. I updated it and ran full scans again, still it has not fixed the virus.
I had tried to manually delete the registry keys of Win 7 Protection and end its processes, but was not able to. It won’t let me open my command prompt and I cannot run most programs.
I cannot identify its location in order to uninstall it.
There is no pw.exe or MSASCui.exe in my processes, but Win 7 Protection is still running.
Help?
