Remove a Banker Fox Virus From XP

If you do not have anti-virus software installed on your Windows XP system, it is at risk of viruses, such as the Banker Fox virus. The Banker Fox virus is a fake anti-spyware tool. It displays misleading virus alerts, inducing you to purchase its full-version anti-virus tool. If this virus is on your system, you might notice the Spyware Protect 2009 tool, which installs the Banker Fox virus. Get rid of the virus by installing anti-virus software.

Instructions

    • 1

      Reboot your XP computer. Tap "F8" repeatedly as the computer boots, but before Windows loads. This opens the Windows Advanced Options Menu.

    • 2

      Navigate with the keyboard arrow keys to highlight "Safe mode with Networking" and press "Enter."

    • 3

      Install the trial edition of anti-virus software, such as A-squared Free, RRT Sergiwa Antiviral Toolkit Personal or AVZ Antiviral Toolkit 4.34 (see Resources). Run the setup file to complete the installation.

    • 4

      Run the anti-virus software. Scan the hard drive and wait for the scan to complete. Follow instructions to select all of the Banker Fox virus infections and run the repair option to remove all the Banker viruses on your system.

    • 5

      Reboot your XP system once the process is complete. Allow Windows to load normally.
