  • sucks that I found this after I re-installed my pc...ah well...great vid anyway!

  • Remember having this, yet without the blue screens. Glad it's gone right now!

  • well excuse me jerdei i kind of made a connection with security TOOLS and pc TOOLS believing that they where affiliated

  • THANK YOU!

    It was driving me Mad!I just downloaded the free trial of flash when I got it, and it expired before I could go on it due to this stupid Virus!

  • DUDE you saved my life!!!!!!!! OMG thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!!! im gna subscribe u just cause u saved my pc :DDDDDDDDDD

  • HAHAHA this is to funny,when the advertisement popped up for this video it advertised pctools,which is the new version of security tools and i've gotten it two times.Thank for the laughs makers of pctools/securit tools.

  • I approved this comment just to show other people how people will think they know what they are talking about when in reality they have no idea. PCTools is on of the leading antivirus clients out there, has been for several years. Every store that sells software has PCTools on the shelf. NORTON aka Symantec (The Biggest anti-virus maker in the world) bought out the company. Next time you go to offer advice, please take a quick second to actually do research before you start to offer advice.

  • Thank you. First man to actually help and it wasn't a scam. -.- U ROCK!

  • Thank you sir!

  • god bless you thank you so much you saved my computer,

  • thanks it worked

  • I think I know why it's called SecurityTool. Sounded more professional than SecurityB*st*rd or SecurityD*ck

  • If you liked the video please hit the LIKE button on the removevirus website. Only 76 likes since we posted the FACEBOOK like button. Would be sweet to hit a few hundred

  • Thank yo so much. This got Security Tool off my pc!!!! :)

  • thank you very much i had this lil devil off my computer in no time

  • this worked very well for my brother. I am the families semi-it-nerd-thing so he asked for my help with his computer. i spent an hour trying myself and searching the web for ways to remove this file, non-worked, not untill i saw ur vid, it was very helpful thx :)

  • thanks a lot dude,...

  • Thanks for this video, I've read quite a few guides on how to remove this now, and none of them mentioned finding the file and changing its name - have to say thats the EASIEST method yet to disable it, and its so easy that anyone can do it, perfect! Once the program is disabled (not starting up disrupting all your programs) there's several methods of getting rid of it, biggest problem was disabling it like you showed how to do in an easy way. Thanks!

  • THANKS for posting this! Note in our XP system it was here: username/local settings/application data. Two files 893452363.exe and 895323.exe. Also it was not listed in MSCONFIG startup, but I did find it in regedit and deleted four keys with those file names.

  • i love u lol...

    (no homo) just thanks a lot i got thinkpoint then i got this bs i got really pissed had to remove em both one after the other in 2 days...

  • Lifesaver much. Thank U!

  • Important: Mine came with a "system will shut down in 60 seconds notice." To disable, Click Start --> Run and type in "shutdown -a" (no quotes!) and ok. That disables the shutdown, so you can actually perform these steps.

    If you can't find the file, click Start, Programs, and when you see "Security Tool" in the Start menu, right click that, and you'll find "properties." Then follow the rest of this video.

    Thank you guys so much for your help!

  • My mom got this on her computer and asked me to try and fix it. This video was a huge help!

  • thx

  • thx very much helped alot thumbs up for jerdei!!!

  • Thank you:) in Windows 7 the virus has two numbered files in folder user - appdata - local.

  • THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!! Omg you just helped me out alot. Unlike other videos, you actually showed everything to computer noobs (such as myself) like changing the folder options to showing all hidden files. Thank you for that. But some people have to watch out, because I found the virus in another place, so theirs might also be somewhere else.

  • Hi, Thank you very much, The file was in a slightly different place but your video really helped me fix this issue !!!!!

  • wow, this really worked!! thanks, also from my father!

  • Thank YOU SO MUCH YES I LOVE YOU.....

  • THANK YOU!!! 

  • mine isnt that bad, im able to watch this even with the malware on ym computer. A trick i found is to spam shift+strl+esc which brings of task manager and quickly press enter which will delete security tool and u wont have any pop ups or blocks while u try to delete it

  • Thank you!

  • I'm from the typewriter generation, so pretty much everything you said went............zoom..........­.......right over my head.  However; I would like to know who the hell is doing this? I do realize it's for sucking people into paying for something they don't really need, y'know, like a door-to-door vacuum cleaner salesman. Thanks anyway, clearly you know your trade.

  • ur the best thx

  • Thank you so much couldn't of done it without this video!!

  • i just laucnches startup repair to fix it

  • thanks so muchhhhhhhhh i was desparate:))))))))

  • Thanks so much! It took me a couple of hours to get it.My computer is a bit newer so i had to take a slighter diffrent route..But a big thanks to people like you that can help us I truelly appriciate it.Thanks for the support.One ?....wich anti-virus do you recommend?Is a free download anti-virus just as good as a paid anti-virus?Thanks agin!!:)

  • thanks mine was named mMmgp01307  .

  • Lol security tool blocks flash so I can't see this.

    However, I did find a guide in text, that should help me.

  • the security tool is GONE!!!! thank u SO much!

  • dude thank u so much

  • Hi Jacob just a quick note to thank you very much for your videos on removal of the Security Tool. My internet security software had allowed it through but your instructions let me sort it out! Brilliant work & thanks again. All the best.

  • i had this last night , it nearly kicked my ass. i didnt get to see this video, but it was pretty bad. it was locking me out of malewarebytes, AND rkill. SO, what i did was ..

    found where the evil file was , made a mental note of it, restarted in safe mode, searched for " application data" found the folder with the little blue shield in it ( the actual file name was a 6 digit number) , deleted it and restarted normally . everything went back to normal.

  • @PHAEDRIDER oohh thankyou thankyou thankyou thaankyouu!! :D you're an absolute lifesaver!!! i love you random person!!

    thought i'd never get rid of it :( :D xxxxx

  • @PHAEDRIDER I got security tool as well, almost gave it my information! it prevented me from using rkill, but I managed to upload malewarebytes by renaming it and then running a full scan. It could have gone a lot harder, though.

  • 1 - I closed the security tool window

    2 - open taskmanager, shut down the process

    3 - go to menu bar, and select all programs, you should see also an icon of this stupid virus, you make right click for "properties" and get the folder where its stored

    4 - write down on paper the name of the files and delete the files (I had 2, 3567844824.exe and 39571.exe - check the icon)

    6 - run REGEDIT and search this file names, delete process with those names

    7 - run antivirus and verify the msconfig

  • OMG!! This was the EASIEST, but yet BEST way to remove that annoying malware! Omg i hate Security Tool shutting down fucking every program i try to open! But this was just simple and easy and best of all.. It worked! I tried other things suggested by so called 'experts' but this is the real expert ladies and gentleman..

  • U are the man!

  • After spending over $75 in on software to remove "security tool".....I did it on my own with this video. It worked!!! Now I am going to my credit card companyto see if i can get a refund on all this software i purchased to remove "security tool".

    thanx.

  • you just saved my life

  • Thank you sooooooooooo much. I was ready for a breakdown! only complaint or suggestion would be to go slower and enlarge your screen so it's easier to see. I followed along well enough and paused the video where I need to; however, someone who may not be as tech savvy may have gotten lost at points where you were moving pretty quickly. THANK YOU!!!

  • thank you very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Thank you very very much! I was fairly close to desperation until I found your video and the wonderful advice. To all German Security Tool victims with Windows XP: if you can't find the folder the way it's shown in the video, try to look under C:, documents and settings, your user name, local settings (lokale Einstellungen) and application data (Anwendungsdaten).

  • Thank U SOO MUCH note: to self stop watching porn

  • security tool is stupid!

  • thank you so much. you're a hero.

    just in case anyone couldnt find the folder... mine was in a different location...

    c:\document and settings\MYUSERNAME\local settings\application data

    fundamentally the same but just incase anyone else is having trouble finding the location. THANKS AGAIN.

  • @tesolly1

  • Many thanks for this video, it helped rid me of this annoying virus. It was a little different in my case; the virus produced no folder only a shield icon and only affected one user on this PC. The method is the same though but only by going through another users login.
