    o boy!!! LOL!!!

    yea sure it is annoying :) but do not be discouraged

    WORD OF CAUTION. IM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU MESS THINGS UP IF YOU START WONDERING HERE AND THERE.

    1a.boot upto safe mode by pressing F8 on rebooting computer

    1b.first go to My computer/TOOLS/FOLDER OPTIONS/VIEW/show hidden files

    2.run msconfig (STaRT,and run) (dont mess with this file if you dont know what you are upto,im not responsible for any other messups you make if you mess things in this file. thank you)

    3.goto startup tab. you will see stuff that runs at startup

    4.you will clearly see the source/location of the Security tool files

    5.go to that location and delete that pathetic file/s. (note: if you see more then 1 or 2 of the security tool files,make note of the location,the idea is to delete all of the locations you do see. I usually found these files to be hidden in My documents on xp/vista but doesnt matter,you might have a different location)

    6.Reboot

    7.perform virus scan and remove all viruses/malware
