How to remove Internet Security 2010 manually:

Manual removal of Internet Security 2010 is a feasible objective if you have sufficient expertise in dealing with program files, processes, .dll files and registry entries.

The files and folders to be deleted are listed below:

* %Program Files%\InternetSecurity2010
* %Program Files%\InternetSecurity2010\IS2010.exe
* %WINDOWS%\system32\41.exe
* %WINDOWS%\system32\winhelper86.dll
* %WINDOWS%\system32\winlogon86.exe
* %WINDOWS%\system32\winupdate86.exe
* %UserProfile%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Internet Security 2010.lnk
* %UserProfile%\Desktop\Internet Security 2010.lnk
* %UserProfile%\Start Menu\Internet Security 2010.lnk

The registry entries that need to be removed are as follows:

* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IS2010
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run “Internet Security 2010″
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run “winupdate86.exe”

One computer user was able to follow these steps and got the virus removed from his computer. He shared the steps in which he did it:

I’ve managed to kick out the IS 2010 by:
- changing my account privileges to simple user,
- setting the simpliest startup possible with msconfig (You can edit Windows Registry by accessing the registry editor. It can be done by choosing ‘Run’ and typing in ‘regedit’.)
After this I could manually remove the IS 2010 as written above.

When I removed the IS 2010 and rebooted the system, I’ve discovered that I can’t logon into any of my accounts. It appears, that some versions of IS 2010 change the Windows registry.

The solution is to set the key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ WindowsNT \ CurrentVersion \ Winlogon
to point into windows userinit.exe file.

When I’ve finally logged into my computer I’ve discovered that:
- the task manager isn’t working,
- I can’t change the wallpaper.

The solution to this problems is again a registry edit. Find in the current_user and local_machine branches the following path:
software > microsoft > windows > currentversion > policies

Then remove the keys:
noactivedesktopchanges
nosetactivedesktop
nochangingwallpaper

Conclusion: When just surfing in the web use a simple user account rather then an administrator one – the IS2010 won’t have a chance to install, mix up the registry and do any harm.
