Hello Ishan,

I understand your concern.

Some viruses are self- protective and to protect themselves, they will prevent the installation and/or running not only antivirus applications but also antivirus tools.

To so, the virus runs a process or processes which must be killed before you can do anything. I can hear you ask: "But what process and how do I kill it?

First I you must tell me what operating system you are using and which antivirus application you are trying to install.

Last but not least, to identify the virus and the process I require a log which will give a picture of the processes running on your system as well as the registry entries susceptible of hiding the virus.

1. Please download Hyjackthis, NOT to your desktop but in your C:\folder. The reason that we dont want it on your desktop is that the virus may recognized Hyjackthis as a antivirus tool which it is.

Here is the link to download Hyjackthis, please download version 2.0.3 Beta:

http://free.antivirus.com/hijackthis/

2. Once downloaded, please go to your C:\ and spot Hyjackthis. Once again, in order to outwit the virus, I wish for you to rename Hyjackthis to Kioskea.exe.

3. Run the setup and from the main menu page, request a scan and save a log. The log will automatically open after the scan.

4. From the "Edit" select all and copy the log.

5. Paste the log on this thread.

6. Wait for my response, I will analyse the log and prescribe the very best remedy to poison the virus to death.

Best regards
