Fake antivirus removal tool

[Networx]

My friend has got a fake antivirus in his PC which scans frequently and shows the system is in danger. According to him, he got infected from this link

LINK LEADING TO Malware REMOVED

He has scanned using Mcafee, Spybot and Malwarebytes. Any suggestions on how to proceed further ? Is there any fake antivirus removal tool ?

McAfee Singer you can use this too . Strong like others above .

Can you collect the executable by any chance? Open Task Manager or third party task manager (Process Hacker/Process Explorer) to detect the process and locate the file. Scan that file in Virustotal. let us know which AVs are detecting it!

Or, download Norton Power Eraser
http://security.symantec.com/nbrt/npe.aspx?
Run a full scan. It will list suspicious files. Let those scan online. If it finds something unknown or malicious let us know.

Or, run Hitman Pro

run a default scan and note down the detections if any!

Thanks for the links guys. @ leo never meant any harm. Just want to give the link from which he suspected to have got the infection. Was planning to remove it myself today.
