XPAntivirus 2009 Removal Guide

Do you know what XPAntivirus 2009 is?

DESCRIPTION

XPAntivirus 2009 or XP Antivirus 2009, is a fake anti-spyware program that has come out a bit too soon before the year 2009. Hackers are now jumping the gun in naming some of their malicious programs such as XPAntivirus 2009. It is not 2009 yet is it? We had enough trouble with XP Antivirus and Antivirus 2008 which are related to XPAntivirus 2009. So why a 2009 version now?

XPAntivirus 2009 looks to be newer variant of XP Antivirus that performs the same malicious acts of bombarding you with false popups and bogus system scans to scare you into purchasing the full version. XPAntivirus 2009 can be installed undercover without your permission usually through a Trojan infection such as Zlob.

In non-techie terms: XPAntivirus 2009 should not be downloaded, installed or purchased under any circumstances. XPAntivirus 2009 is useless and does not remove spyware from your system like it claims too. Have you made the mistake of installing XPAntivirus 2009 or purchasing XPAntivirus 2009?

You can even install Windows Vista with USB 2.0 flash memory drive now. All you need is a high speed 4GB flash memory only to create a bootable Windows Vista on flash memory drive.This is much faster than using a DVD, gigabit ethernet, or possibly even some external USB 2.0 hard drives, due to differences in access speed & transfer rate. So below the step to create a bootable windows vista on flash memory drive

Create a bootable Windows Vista on Flash Memory

Windows 7 Build 6519.winmain.071220-1525 Review

Installation revealed the EULA page, http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/eula.aspx

Installation had not changed much only thing you'll notice upon completion of installation, rating system is gone, now there are no advertising placards, no loud slogans. Just a report on how component equipment is checked.

Installation finished, let's look at version first;

During system boots we now see full-screen animated graphics. A small strip runs in the bottom of the screen, sparkling asterisks.
One new thing I really liked was the updated display of icons hidden in the system tray;
It's now also possible to change the width of the search box in Explorer. Simple change but still new and someone probably missed that option.
