Sorry if this is in the wrong place but I wasn't sure where to post it!?!?!

A friend of mine has had an icon appear in his registry called Virusbuster. He already has norton antivirus and spyware software. this thing seams to have downloaded its self onto his machine. We have tried all sorts to get rid of it, to no avail. He can't get on the internet anymore although he can receive and send emails. Is this a virus, spyware? or is it a legitimate program simply conflicting with existing software? Has anyone had any dealings with this before???

Help!!!

:confused: :confused: :confused:
 
He swears not. So I don't know where it has come from!

Tried add/remove programs, removed it from the start menu, run 'regedit' and removed the obvious from there...

aaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

plus, when you click on the icon it takes you to a web page or advert or whatever it is, telling you there are loads of virus' on you machine and you need to buy their product for $90!!
