Personal Shield Pro- A fake anti-virus software

Like an ordinary day, a few minutes ago, I was accessing net. Suddenly I noticed some antivirus, named "Personal Shield Pro", was disturbing me with its pop-ups which says that my system is infected with enormous viruses and malwares. I was surprised to see this new anti-virus software on my system. But I let it keep scanning my system. After it had scanned my system wholly, it told me that lots and lots of problems had been found and in order to rectify them, I need to upgrade this antivirus. I didn't bother to do so and kept doing my work.

Then suddenly I found that it is deactivating many of my system controls and processes like task manager, registry editor, some of my browser features, my taskbar icons etc. So I realized that this was something other than an antivirus software. I goggled for it and got various links which means to remove the Personal Shield Pro. This confirmed my doubt.

I opened one such link which suggests to download some anti-malware program. But this fake antivirus has already disabled any such function on my system. Tired of trying every possible thing, I decided why not to check "Safe Mode with Networking". I logged in again in safe mode with networking and deleted all the files from my "temporary folder". Please don't delete any file which your system might be using; simply skip deleting that file(s). After this I restarted my system in the usual mode and it was done. I finally got rid of that fake anti-virus program.
Some links on google shows to delete some registry entries and some files, but I did nothing like that.


In case if you find any such program, just check for it on net and take appropriate actions.


Happy Computing...!!

Final Semester Result Out

Hurray. My final semester result is out and I secured 84%. :))

Thank you God. I'm thanking God because I wasn't very sure of such a good percentage and that also in my final semester when we had very funny question papers. I remember when we people received our question papers in our hands in the initial few minutes of examination hall, we people used to laugh and look around as to what should be done with this paper-whether it should be attempted or should be turned into the paper plane. :O
Generally the PTU (my university) question papers are expected similar to the previous 10 year papers. But same was not the case with us.


But its OK. Its over now. A happy ending. I'm a B-Tech Graduate now. I'm very happy. My college is over now. There are tons of things I'm gonna miss about my college and my friends. :(


For the timing, I don't want to think of anything sad because this is the time for celebrations. So kudos to me....!! Hurray I did it...!!
