Windows 2009/Antivirus 2009
This is a nasty virus that effects machines either through going to a website or through an e-mail. What it does is it will pretend to be an antivirus software that will scan your machine for viruses. If possible when you see it, do the CTRL + ALT + DEL and cancel the webpage that is currently open. If you happen to become infected and need to remove this nasty virus please use this website with great information to remove it. http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/malware-removal/uninstall-antivirus-2009

We somehow got this virus on a staff computer at the Menominee County Library. I downloaded the program from the site Jean listed and put it on a flashdrive and put it on the machine following the instructions it listed. It worked like a charm! Thanks for the great advice Jean!
