Micro Billing System scam

I've even tried starting DT in safe mode and running a virus checker using Bullguard but it doesn't find anyhting and still won't boot unless in safe mode.
My first thought is that this is nowhere near sufficient, just off the top of my head you should be using ccleaner, adware, spybot s&d, AVG AS, and probably something better than bullguard. Have you actually gone through the malware removal guide sticky on this board?"She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

For everyone trying to get rid of my sex world, I tried everything that everybody posted on this site but couldn't get rid. So all you do is go onto accessories, systems restore and then back in time to a date before my sex world came on to your computer, I did this last week and it took it off straight away but if you have anything installed which you need to keep then you will have to copy them as it will reboot to the date you have selected. It's really easy to do, let's all get rid of this scam. :j0

It locks up your machine for longer and longer. It's blackmail-malware, it extorts money on the (genuine) threat of crippling your pc. Although it's probably the pc equivalent of Littlejo's suggestion."She is quite the oddball. Did you notice how she didn't even get excited when she saw this original ZX-81?"

I tried following the info from 'Browntoa' but couldn't find all the info. Eventually discovered it:
The Manage Add ons bit was in the 'Internet Options' on Control Panel under 'Programmes'.
The file in there was under a name starting with ubs - not mbs!!!!!
The other files I found in 'System32' were:
axaccessctrl.ocx
axaccessctrl1.ocx
imvalid.ico
imvalid.ico.bak0
rmvalid.exe
smvalid.exe
Hope this helps everyone else and thanks to Browntoa for the help!!!!0 -
Surely this cant be legal, isnt this more commonly known as sabotage?. I didnt even realise there were companies out there with the ability or permission to block your pc from service. Even Microsoft wouldnt have such a scheme available for "pirated" MS software, I think the reason they dont is because it is breaching the law.
It must be outlawed, otherwise any rogue out there, could lock a pc for a ransom. (thats basically what its doing).:A:dance:1+1+1=1:dance::A
