ok heres wat up im was on the web and what ever vista guardian 2010 just downloaded and is messing my computer up big time....how can i get it off. im running mail byits right now...can any one help?
Your best bet is to finish a full scan of Malware Bytes, or Spybot: Search and Destroy, if all else fails, specific removal instructions can be found here (don't attempt this unless you know what you are doing), here is a quote from the site
Quote:Although it is possible to manually remove Vista Guardian 2010, such activity can permanently damage your system if any mistakes are made in the process, as advanced spyware parasites are able to automatically repair themselves if not completely removed. Thus, manual spyware removal is recommended for experienced users only, such as IT specialists or highly qualified system administrators. For other users, we recommend using automatic spyware removal applications

Please post the results of the MalwareBytes scan here, we can then provide you with the neccessary instructions of steps to take next. MalwareBytes should be adequate enough to remove the infection.
Yes, malwarebytes is very good solution.
