    I don’t find any of the files. But the little sucker is sitting on my taksbar driving me crazy with pop ups. Any other files I could search? I looked on the processes, they’re not there. I went to control panel add/remove files. It would not remove it. Any other suggestions?

    The only way I found to remove it, is to log into safemode w/out networking, go to control panel /add-remove programs and delete Antivirus XP 2008 from the list. Then run a disk clean up to delete all temp internet files, then do a system restore.
