  • I <3 rogueamps vids allways and i will always love them :D I have learned so much from him I cant remember it all xD :DDDDDDDDDDDD

  • Rogue, uncheck "Show extensions only for uncommon file types" in Folder Options and you should be able to erase the .pif extension.

  • OMGGGGG THANK YOU...!

  • @squezey1 Exactly, I just got my computer professionally fixed... really sucks.

  • I would fucking kill whoever gave this to me. Legit im so fucking pissed I would kick the shit out of the little faggot sitting behind his computer screen, infecting everybodys computers with this bitch virus. I mean Damn...

  • @fklstv7 Me too, I'm lucky I got my computer fixed by someone in my family that managed to remove this thing. I don't have the money for a new computer and I'm lucky I backed up data too. And little? I bet everyone who makes these are over weight and live in a basement.

  • Holy crap. I understand that a lot of neckbeards want to get out of their mom's basement to move all their hentai mags but DAMN.

    Why the hell does someone have to be so lazy as to make a rogue have ~30 names!?

    I would make a damn Rogue that disables all internet use, file operation, it deletes taskmngr.exe, and best of all.......

    It deletes solitaire. I'm such an evil bastard.

  • alright.... save as work.....anyways how u do it... seems like other version of win7

  • HOW ???? Do you convert exe to COM? HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW HOW???? DOES NOT WORK! why doesn't it say .exe? when i go to properties it says "exe fail" but there is NO "change" HOW DO U DO THAT?

  • SUBBED! LOVE YOU THANKS 4 HELP

  • Hey thanks, God Bless you sir, i appreciate your help very much

  • I mean app data* ( to rename chrome)

  • I mean app data*

  • Im trying to follow step by step but in my safe mode i do not have a local disk or application? Can you help me? Or anyone?

  • Who has time to create viruses? Like, what fucking life did you miss out on?! I was unfortunately introduced to the W7ASV today & it the process to remove it was grueling. Initially, I thought that the purchasing part was an upgrade of my security essentials & that I needed to buy it. The creators of this fuckery are definitely smart though because it fools the average non-techi person. Anyways, after playing with different options for so long, I just rebooted my laptop to an earlier date then

  • fuck the cunts that invent this fake anti virus shit

  • What about Windows 7/xp/vista antivirus 2012

  • It got rid of it, thanks a bunch dude. nothing wrong so far.

  • There needs to be good viruses that take over your computer to remove other viruses

  • donating money 2 u as soon as ur site is back up. u saved my computer twice. thankyou

  • omg the 2012 version is so much worse i got it two weeks ago and hopefully got rid of it

  • thanks man, im just now starting to learn more about computers and you helped alot.

  • It says that I need to disable a feature on my anitivirus, a "live" scanner. It's Ad-aware live, but it isn't turned on. However, I have Ad-aware, I just didn't turn on the feature. should I un-install it? I need instant reply. (From anybody, in the least.)

  • rogueamp, combofix says that I need to disable an antivirus before combofix starts.....

  • Comment removed

  • This works for the 2012 version, right? I have it on another computer, this piece of crap won't leave me alone wherever I go.... :(

  • I hope people who put out these viruses gets caught and heavily fined

  • tks tks tks it work it work tks for helping 

  • fix the rest of it here from the 2012 version...

    v=gnplDRVts7M

  • ...Or you could just delete the virus file yourself, then go into regedit, and fix your ".exe" settings.

    Though, to be fair, doing this can cause more problems if you don't know what you're doing, so I guess your way is better.

  • Shit, it came back? wtf??

  • @Goldspar1 It is probably rootkitted, use combofix/gmer to fix this

  • @ScienceGuy12345678 Too late. Reformated already.

  • @Goldspar1 sorry about your loss :(

  • YES! it worked! Can I suck your dick?

  • I Love You, Man! Thanks. It Worked!

  • Thank you so much! Worked like a charm. Truly appreciate the time and energy you gave to put this video together to help the rest of us out. Would very much like to make a donation as a thank you but can't find the link at the bottom of the page. What can I do?

  • Every time it loads a screen pops up saying its incompatible...Help!

  • It worked!! Thanks soooo much!

  • I'm at the point were I loaded combofix, now I can't open it! Help

  • thank you so muchhhh :D

  • This didn't work for me. :s

  • I guess that's what I get for not reading instructions :(

  • That's awesome.. Now my browsers don't work. Remember to change google to .com not .pif!!

  • This really helped!! Thanks! :)

  • U freaking rock dude! thanks!

  • Thank you so much! You saved from alot of trouble, your a lifesaver!

  • The way I fixed it (I've got this one multiple times before) is I make a new text document on my desktop and then make a .bat file that runs cmd. from there i ran my anti-virus and it deleted it. (It actually lets you run notepad, and kaspersky anti-virus amazingly)

  • Thanks so much. It seemed to have fixed it. When win7 started i was like o shit, there goes all my music. Again you pretty much saved my ass.

  • Help please. I did everything that was told up until the stages part. It would reach stage 2 then just reboot instantly onto the normal screen. I tried again only to get the same results. So I tried logging on the normal mode, but now it won't even show my desktop unless I have it on safe mode. Did the combofix ruin my system ? or am I missing something. Please reply soon ! I really need my laptop back for a project :c

  • OMG!!!!! people might say this doesnt work but it did for me!!! YAY!!! I really recommend this to people that hav this problem c:

  • What this done to me is it took control of AVG and whenever i started AVG it would start Win 7 antivirus.

  • Man, that's a lot of names... Who is so desperate for money that they are this pathetic to make these... Hahaa

  • I removed it manually, but mine didn't drop a rootkit. Kaspersky found it, but it wouldn't quarantine it (odd) but it helped me find it because it displayed the folder it was in (same as rogueamp's) and deleted it.. I found the way around this .exe problem. Right-click and click Run as admin. Then, I went to BleepingComputer and downloaded a file named FixNCR.reg. That fixed it. Then I ran MBAM and removed any remains and it found 3.

  • PEOPLE!!! IF THE FIX DOES NOT WORK FOR YOU, CHANGE THE DATE TO 7 DAYS AHEAD! THE PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO DELETE ITSELF AFTER A WEEK AND CHANGING THE DATE TRICKS IT INTO THINKING A WEEK HAS PASSED. THAT, OR YOU COULD ACTUALLY WAIT A WEEK

  • good video! but why do you use google chrome??

    and you have still internet exploer 8!

    Upgrade to ie9.

    ie9 is better faster and safer then chrome!

  • @ThePatrykfilm9000 He doesn't want a safer version of Windows. He's doing malware removal videos, it'll just get in his way.

  • @Mr777luver thanks for the tip but you haven't exactly solved my issue it may be crapware, but I still want to use it....

  • I used Malwarebytes in conjunction with some registry key and a process killer(i 4got which one) and it worked perfectly........ i would have had used ur method but by the time i was at ur vid... i was halfway don.... but great vid!

  • .... to see if it can repair anything but nothing comes up, I can't uninstall it to reinstall it, nor can I find it in the services :/

  • Thanks man this is a great fix but I have a leftover problem: I can't use windows defender anymore, I know it's crapware but I'd like to keep it running, my issue is that it won't start, it says: "the specified service does not exist as an installed service" and an error code "0x80070424" if you or anyone has any fix' for this please drop me a message, of it helps the virus I had was Win7 antivirus 2012 I've tried stuff on the MS forums and I've done a commnd prmpt (sfc /scannow) to see if it c

  • @TheSmallfryWillKill try installing microsoft security essentials.....its not too bad and its free! but yeah, defender is crapware!

  • Wooooooooo!! Nevermind! It worked thanks a million!!!!!-33333

  • Can you do the sane with safari? Or does it have to be google crome?

  • I did this and my sounds working on songs I've had downloaded, but now I can't here any sound on youtube videos. Do you know how to fix this?

  • hey how do you go into safe mode

  • @TheMeilleureBaise23 You have to restart your computer, and when the screen is black (Off) keep pressing F8 until the service window pops up.

  • @TheNicole43210 thanks

  • You really helped me out. Thank you!

  • Peoples with administrative rights can do this. Well I can't !

    My dad's gonna bomb me if he knows....

  • Is there a video showing the antivirus, but not removing it

  • I've read that combifix can be quite dangerous to use because it can remove files needed to run your computer. Is this likely to happen?

  • I tried this fix and had a little bit of trouble. For me, the program files was listed just as "iexplorer" and not "iexplorer.exe" and same for firefox. I was unable to change to .com. I looked at a few other videos and couldn't find one that worked. Finally i looked in comments and someone had a code/product key to enter. I entered it and it worked to get me to the combo fix download step. That fixed it! The code that I entered was 1147-175591-6550. This was the only thing that saved me.

  • how did you get aero in the vm?

  • does this really work?

  • So far, this is working for what I can see, i tried two other confusing processes and this one was the only one that was not a hassle although renaming chrome was tough at first i had to open file location in order to cause the one folder wasnt showing up that u clicked but right now my laptop is going thru the stages an hopefully tomorrow i can finish my jeopardy game for school finals and then build some houses on the sims! Urule and so does utube, 2nd time ive gotten these things and i still

  • Hey do you happen to work at... Presidium?

  • there are the people who use their time to take up your time

    then there are the people who take up their time to save you time

    personally, I just wanted to see what the removal process for this was - I've never been infected with it myself. Regardless, thank you from the community for spending your time fixing the world's problems. Anyone who does actually use the advice of people like you should donate in my opinion.... after adding to the bounty on the head of this virus's creator.

  • i have avg 9.0 and when trying uninstall it wont allow. What do i do?

  • I feel so happy that I'm gonna cry. Thank you so much.

    had trouble at first with Combo but I got it to work step by step :)

  • Got this virus on my dad's work laptop. You saved my fucking life bro!

  • cheers man mucho apreciated

  • I can't use the combofix because I have a antivirus service. but it won't take it off. so I dont know what to do. Can you help?

  • My computer has been released from the bonds of the total security virus. I thank you. This machine is my only source of income.

  • ugh well i download the chrome onto my other comp but my dad doesnt trust me. ohwell thanks for the vid. just curious if you download it on just regular settings will chrome work? mine doesnt

  • Thanks for the video! You are informative, educational and entertaining. You just received a new subscriber and a thumbs-up.

  • Why don't you go back to the beginning and put something about not naming it .pif...

    That would save a lot of hassle ..

    Thanks btw

  • thank you man i have been messing with my girlfriends pc for like a hour and tryed all kinds of stuff to stop that thing from messing with me and this seems to have done it so tyvm

  • Thanks dude. I'm 10 and I was able to fix my computer.

  • dude thankkk youuu soooo damn much. i would donate but im poor lol but yeah thanks for the video helped me out so much

  • Where did this virus come from? A program like frost wire/ lime wire?

  •  I LOOOOOVEEEEE YOU.

  • Thank you, worked a treat. I love you!

  • i used your video to fix my mom's computer. she says she loves you and wishes she could keep you forever. i feel the same

  • I managed to remove it with Malwarebytes alone.

  • i love you :XXXX that stupid win 7 security ... fucked up my laptop and desktop .... it was really helpful

  • hey guys i had the internet security 2011 before and i removed it thx to spyware doctor but my computer seems to be slower than before

  • Nvm. If anyone else had this problem => go to Computer -> Organise (Left top) -> Map & search options -> View -> uncheck the box of 'Hide extensions for known file types'

    Then change the name, and also the extension type.

    Other than that little problem, THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS VID!! :D

    Couldnt have done it without you!

  • Im screwed -.- on 3:50 you change the name of chrome.exe

    When i try that, it still wont open :(

    Gonna try some more stuff xP

  • This video was great. Easy to follow and did the job.

  • My PC still works fine so i know it works , Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 3, Computer- Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.20GHz 3.19GHz, 1.00 GB of RAM. This virus will hide its self in different places and use different names. I'm sure whoever made it keeps updating it, that's why my (antivirus) didn't pick it up, and male-ware bytes wont stop this virus it's not in there database, i tried on a different PC and had to format my HD and delete all partitions, that was before i saw this video..

  • OS (C:)?. Well OS means Operating System, you can click on it and open it, App Data maybe in there somewhere. Just do this download combo fix from another PC copy it to a usb flash drive rename the combo fix file on the usb stick to (5.com). OK now go back to your infected PC turn the PC on and tap F8 rapidly then start safe mode without networking. Once in safe mode plug in your usb and open the combo fix file you renamed. Let it do it's thing after that your PC will reboot itself virus free.

  • why when i go into my computer it only shows OS (C:)? and it also doesnt show app data

  • I wish I would of saw this video 2 days ago

  • Don't do a system restore it don't work, i tried it and it said system restore is incomplete, it's a waste of 15 minutes on XP anyway. I don't see how this didn't work for some.. make sure you rename the combofix install file before you put it on your infected PC, If you don't then the virus will just override it from fixing your PC. I lost nothing everything works like it did before i was infected, Now just go and delete them old restore points that are infected and make new ones. good luck

  • @TheMookey420 I ended up restoring to factory defaults because I was too damn frustrated. I ran several anti-virus and anti-malware programs. I booted into safe mode and ran a couple anti-virus and anti-malware programs and nothing. I tried restoring to a backup but the clever bastard deleted all my backups. It eventually came to the point where I was forced to restore to factory default

  • Thank you man fixed my PC, I did manage to find a way around the browser block, in safe mode without renaming the file, i just opened my Firefox then when the virus shit popped up, you open task manager and kill the 3 letter process, mine was tuu.exe, then you can use your browser, that's how i found your video, went to another PC downloaded combo fix to a USB stick, renamed it 5.com installed in safe mode worked, after that i used CCleaner to clean out the registry, Verizon full scan, Works :)

  • THANK YOU , THANK YOU, THANK YOU !!!

  • tysm this was sooo legit ilysm!

  • Computer does not go into advanced F8 menu, I hit F8 the enitre time it restarts...and nothing.

  • god i fucking hate virus's....

    i guess this is what i get for trying to watch king of the hill online :/

  • hey I entered Skullcrusher94's code, and it registered me for Win 7 Protection?

    Is this what's suppose to happen?

  • Your the best dude! Probably just saved me 100 bucks and it was Quick and Easy! Thanks Again!

  • you're the best for doing this!

  • thank you so much man!!!

  • Awesome! Thank you. I don't have money now, but I will advertise you on my congressional campaign facebook! Rick Waugh

  • Listen, Please make an UPDATED video because yours is the ONLY one that doesn't say "DOWNLOAD THIS Blah Blah Blah". And this one is called "Win 7 Internet Security 2011" It has a Different Posses name and I found them but they can't be removed. It has my Mom's Laptop by the Balls. Can you Help? Another is "Windows Recovery" it is Not as bad but it won't stop Helping the Other Rouge. Please Help us! Malware bytes is Pointless, It deleted EVERY PROGRAM! HELP!!! Please Help us! - AnE Productions

  • @AnEProGamers I can't help you with that mate. but thanks to skullcrusher94 heres the code to it: 1147-175591-6550

  • @Dillon1225 I wasn't asking you, and what is that supposed to do? The virus already killed the C drive and deleted the account it was on. the PC needs to be COMPLETELY ERASED Because Nobody could answer me fast enough! Now it may even be Perminitly Damaged! - AnE Productions

  • PLEASE ! PLEASE ! PLEASE! someone answer my question

    How do I get the program to have .EXE at the end ?

    Everytime I change it , it still ends u with .EXE at the end...

  • You beautiful person you.

  • I love you.

  • i cant DL combofix D:

    it says the webpage is not available plz help wat do i do ?????

  • Thank you so much. You are awesome.

    I was freaking out.

  • Excellent thank you very much

  • Spent nearly seven hours trying to get rid of this virus, and rogueamp, had the ONLY solution. THANKS for saving my butt.

  • Thanks Soooooooooooo much you've saved my computer! Really appreciate it man!

  • Thank you so much man. EVERYONE trust me IT WORKS! 100%. Just do exactly what he does EXCEPT for renaming your browser to .pif. Thanks again bro, you saved my night.

  • soo i got rid of the virus, but now i can;t open any exe. files? =S help?

  • Hey.. I just went to safe mode.. and MalwareBytes worked.. I ran a scan and then restarted my comp.. and now I'm virus free :)

  • At 10:20, you were having trouble renaming the chrome file back to an exe. This is because Windows wasn't showing the extensions of known files. Checking the option for Windows to show all file extensions in the Folder Options box should allow you to change everything back.

  • Thank you dude.

  • DUDE IM TRYING TO WATCH THIS IN SAFEMODE LIKE YOU SAID TO AND I CANT SEE SHIT!!!!!

  • you made me laugh throughout the video

  • Btw, there is a way to get ont your browser with this rouge and WITHOUT having to go into safe mode and/or changing/adding onto the file ext. of your .exe file. Just open up CCleaner and hit the update link. It will bypass the rouge and bring you straight to the piriform site, at which point internet access is allowable again. I've done this, mainly using F.Fox/

  • tnx.. this totally helped me.. :)

  • RogueAmp, one question: Since you are using a 64-bit version of Windows 7, does that mean the rogue did not load the rootkit into the computer? I've always heard that rootkits can't get into 64-bit operating systems.

  • WAIT ROUGEAMP, GET A FREE SCAN FOR WINDOWS ERRORS!

  • You use a pirated copy of Win7, :O lol, I do that for XP on my VM

  • Thanks,,,You are a life saver. You have saved me a great deal of time. Worst virus I have ever had.

  • hey, i cant change my firefox to .com or anything...

  • Thanks bro I Finally Removed IT Thanks to you

  • why wouldn't Malware Bytes remove this rouge Aniti-virus? I have read websites and they say to use Malware Bytes to remove this. Why do you say not to use it.  i.e ("Malware Bytes is not going to help you...")
