How to Remove XP Internet Security
The XP Internet Security fake antispyware is the latest spawn in the demented badware family that’s already tormented us with Vista Total Security, XP Antispyware, and a few dozen others. XP Internet Security is designed to look like a real Windows tool, but it doesn’t actually help. It’s only goal is to steal your money.
If you’ve been clicking any shady links or downloading dubious files, that’s probably how you got XP Internet Security on your computer. And now that you have it, it’s going to refuse to let go for as long as it can. You’ll see a lot of XP Internet Security pop-ups, and your system will run slow for as long as you let this pest hang around.
But don’t go ballistic on your hard drive just yet. I can show you how to get rid of XP Internet Security for free.

Note: In any files I mention above, “%UserProfile%” is a variable referring to your current user’s profile folder. (Not an iEuphemism for muth@fugg@#*!@.) So if you’re using Windows NT/2000/XP/7, by default this is “C:\Documents and Settings\[CURRENT USER]” (e.g., “C:\Documents and Settings\NoahFence”).
