I somehow got the security tool virus on my computer 2 weeks ago. I did eventually get it off, and here is how…
Restart the computer, you should see a prompt to hit f8 or f12 at the top right corner of the screen (this should be before the windows begins to load- it moves pretty fast, so pay attention and do it quickly!). Hit f8, use the arrow keys to highlight the option to use safe mode with networking, and hit enter. Allow windows to continue loading, you should now be in safemode (it looks a little different). Next you should go onto the internet, go to – http://www.malwarebytes.org or in your search engine (yahoo) type in Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware. When you are on the site, click on the first version (released jan 2010). Scroll down, and then click on download free version. Follow the directions, download the program and run a full scan! It works!! When it is finished and you delete the infected files, restart the computer and log on normally…
FYI- When this bug got on my labtop, I freaked out thinking that I was going to loose everything! I worked on it all night, without sleep, and I got it off! So, I thought that i would share the info and help someone else.
Best of luck to you, feel free to contact me if you need any help!!

You don’t have to start Task Manager, but Safe Mode to make the virus not being launched. Just reboot your PC, hit F8 and choose the useful option (safe mode with networking). Then look for its numerical processes like 63556365.exe and stop them, finally, run a full system scan.
