    I would advice you to use the Microsoft security essential since it is one of the best antivirus application for windows. I have used this application personally and it works great. You simply can download the application form the following link Microsoft Security essential. After downloading install the same on your system and it will update itself and also yous system will be scanned automatically.

    I will suggest you to use the Combofix which is a freeware (a legitimate spyware remover created by sUBs), Combofix was designed to scan a computer for known malware, spyware (SurfSideKick, QooLogic, and Look2Me as well as any other combination of the mentioned spyware applications) and remove them. ComboFix allows the manual removal of spyware infections. After Combofix finished,a report will be created. You can use this report to search and remove infections which are not automatically removed.

    Live Antivirus Platinum is a fake anti-virus program (there is a similar-sounding - real - Panda Antivirus Platinum Live) and has to do with Avira Antivir nothing. I just keep on searching for information, how will you get rid of the thing - the money paid for it you can probably forget (please check with the bank due to reversal).
