George, Ifound this after a google search:



1. Ctrl, Alt, Delete
2. End Process on Alpha Antivirus
3. Delete the desktop icon
4. Go to windows explorer, C: (drive), Downloaded Program Files, Delete the entire Alpha Antivirus folder.
5. Click start, and remove anything that says Alpha Antivirus by right clicking on it and click delete.
6. Empty recycle bin
I did all this and restarted my computer. I could no longer find any signs of the Alpha Antivirus.



I hope this works for you George.

Hi Rick



Delete the desktop icon (I did that)
Empty recycle bin (Yes)
Alpha Antivirus folder (It would not let me delete it told me it is being used) :wall:
I used the System Restore. I put it back to Friday. When it restore and restarted It was still in the tray for about 50 sec
and then it was gone. :beer: :beer: :beer:
Thank You Rick
