    I think this is similar to the "Antivirus 2008" thing that’s going round, had to deal with this on the in laws pc a few weeks ago.

    I've also seen Antivir64, presume it's yet another variation.
    Move along, nothing to see.

    A friend of mine had to manually remove it with the command prompt in safe mode. That isn't really my area, but I know that’s what he did as I watched him do it.
    My suggestion and/or advice is my own and it is up to you if you follow it, please check the advice given before acting on it.
