How To Remove Trojan.Agent/Gen-Poison - Fake Antivirus Removal Instructions

This tutorial is going to show you exactly how to remove the Trojan.Agent/Gen-Poison virus in the most complete and effective way possible.

The technical name for this virus is a "malware", which stands for malicious software. Unlike many typical viruses, which hide away on your system, this virus will place a highly visible tool on your PC which will continually try and control various aspects of your system. Although it may seem like the program just appeared on your system, the fact is that it installed itself from an infectious source, including the likes of a Trojan Horse virus, fake email attachment or rogue download. If you want to remove the infection, you need to get rid of all the program files it has placed onto your PC, and then get rid of any of the files it has also hidden around your computer to help it come back.

The infection will typically install itself into this folder of your system:
