Please, be aware that manual removal of Antivirus System Pro hijacker is a cumbersome procedure and does not ensure complete deletion of the malware, due to the fact that some files might be hidden or may automatically reanimate themselves afterwards.
Recommended Removal:
Our suggestion for preventing future malware is to obtain a good online anti-spyware program, which will make sure that your system remains safe when you surf on the web. Using and downloading from the internet without Spyware protection in play is basically asking for trouble!
If you think you may already have Personal Antivirus, use Spyware Doctor 6 to find Personal Antivirus and other common malware infections.
