Beware of Anti-Virus-1: it is a spyware virus

1st) I am on my laptop, not the computer that is infected!!

Anti-Virus-1 is a new rogue anti-spyware application. This parasite is very similar to Antivirus 2010. These two fake programs are even advertised through the same fake online scanner. The main purpose of Anti Virus 1 is to frighten users and trick money from them. That's why it is important to remove Anti-Virus-1 upon detection.

My kids this week end thought this was my anti-virus software and click on it. It install and highjack my explorer so far.GGGRRR I have AVG and have contacted them, waiting on their response. I have also google it looking for manual instructions on how to remove it. All I can find is what files, but not the detail instructions like what and where to delete this shit.

I would greatly appreciate help from somefriendly computer guys
