I recently "dowloaded" AV360 by accident. Let me tell you, it's a nasty one. It is a malicious process that runs invisibly, so it is a matter of ending that process, for free I might add. You will need to bring up the Task Manager (use ctrl+alt+del, or ctrl+shift+esc to do this), then click on the Processes tab. Find av360.exe in the list, and click on it to highlight it (do NOT open it). Then click End Process. This trojan creates a file on your computer, so you must find the file in order to delete it completely. There may be an icon on your desktop, or a small icon in the taskbar at the bottom of your screen. Right click on that and select delete. You may also use the search option found in the Start menu to find the file av360.exe. Best wishes and good luck! -Jen Reply to Jen | 9 peter, on Feb 28, 2009 2:26:00 pm GMTJen,
You saved my computer! Thank you so much! AVG360 was attacking my desktop terribly and none of the other advice worked. Thanks again,

I have followed the steps to try and clear av360 following Jens advice, but i cannot find the file av360.exe. after i end the process in the Task Manager. I can't see it on my desktop or the task bar. I've tryed seaching for the file in the start menu, and also says it cannot find the file!!!!
Does anyone know what i can do??? PLEASE! :) Reply to mango | 14 AJ, on Mar 9, 2009 4:01:24 am GMTLet me tell you, AVG360 is vicious. This virus hides in your registry,start menu, moves consistently and create malicious files while doing so. It wont allow you internet access to update any anti-virus,anti-malware, etc...I have been fighting with it for a little over a week. I even had a Dell technician remotely access my PC and after 3 hours, 2 Sr. techs and a manager we decided the best thing to do is back up my PC and restore my system to its factory settings. It was my last solution but it worked.... Reply to AJ | 16 als, on Mar 9, 2009 12:36:55 pm GMTHey there.. sorry you had such a bad problem with it.. i had called dell and oh boy did they ever piss me off!!!! i spent over 3000.00 with that company with a lap top and a new tv and had as well purchased there extended warranty for 3 yrs and when the virus got on my computer they wouldnt help me unless i paid them over 100.00 bucks. like i told them i hall all of there firewalls, all there spy ware on my computer so why should i have to pay them to help me take something off of my computer that there spy ware, and firewall didnt catch as a virus... so i have a brother in law that works on computers and it took him no time at all to find it and repair it and im up and running again.. i just saw that you had talked to dell as well and wanted to give my opinion on dell and that is that they suck and i have cancled my credit card account with them and will never use them again.. just like my tv.. when we took the cable line off the back of the tv when i moved the little hook broke and so e had to cut the cable line in half, so they said they dont fix that because its something we did. no it isnt something we did when its turning from on the inside of the computer.. so hope u didnt pay them..
