System Antivirus 2008 file, which is a fake anti virus program from my computer? I've tried renaming the file (SAV) and it keeps saying it is either in use or right protected and that i dont have the authority to remove it. Help?

its a virus, you have to look up on google how to remove it, i had a virus earlier this year like that, and i had to download a special program to remove it.

Put that in your juice box and suck it.

you could simply get rid of that virus by by using the
manufacturer restore disc.

this will overwrite the C drive and all the files will be lost once it is done

it also gets rid of viruses so you dont have to worry about them

i had this when i downloaded an mp3 codec from a dodgey site (not too clever lol), to get rid of it i used a program called "Trojan remover", at first it don't get rid of it then it scans the computer during boot up so that the file is no longer in use. 30 day free trail, would reccmend it
