[simmo.3]

my son has downloaded some prog that has turned in to a real pain, can you help me get rid of it?
what i have in my task bar is a blue circle with a yellow cross and a yellow ? mark which flashes off and on over the top of the circle.
if you hold the mouse over it you get a message saying "critical system error" if you try to right click or left click on it you will be connected to the net and sent to a web page for a prog called virusbuster, i have searched the reg and all files but i cant get the icon out of the task bar ive run spybot and antivirus software but its no good, any ideas lads...

cheers
simmo

Is it VirusBuster or VirusBurst? I have a feeling it's virusburst.
like this:

It is virusburst then take a look here for removal instructions:
