Security Tool

A software program called "Security Tool" has been downloaded tp our laptop
in error.  It is clearly somesort of virus.  Any idea on how to uninstall
this?  It does not show up in the list of programs available to uninstall.
For the time being, I have been able to disable the software on startup..but
worried that it may cause me problems very soon.
Thanks.

It is a rogue security program (not a virus AFAIK).

It is a rogue security program (not a virus AFAIK). The usual removal
tools should be including this new one in their repertoir soon.

Try Super AntiSpyware (SAS) MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware (MBAM) and maybe
Combofix too.

I have not heard yet if a "rootkit" is involved, but it will not hurt to run
GMER *first* just in case.

If the (more or less) automatic removal tools do not work, HiJackThis
(HJT) is a good tool to help experts to analyze your system.

Security Tool software is a fake program.
