How do I remove Personal Security from my computer?
I know that its like Malware and it will not let me open any thing what so ever, all my desktop icons are gone and i have to restart my computer to get the internet going as the icons are only on screen for 2 seconds, so how do i get rid of it?
its easy. No money required:
Boot into safe mode. To do this, restart your computer, the first second you see something pop up,repeatably click f8 until you get options. Click Safe mode WITH Newtworking
Go to your internet browser and download malwarebytes.
Let it scan for a while and when it finds threats,DELETE THEM
Then your computer is back.

OK common problem with an easy solution. It is not wise to open all links that you’ve been sent, so watch out from now on (they are usually masked with tinyURL or sth like that). I have posted the solution on my blog, feel free to use it:
Get a good antivirus first like AVG from http://free.avg.com or anything similar, preferably run it once in Safe Mode just to make sure.
Try to install and scan with Spybot S&D or Malwarebytes Anti-malware to remove any malware pests. Both have an IP blocker option and real-time protection (free in Spybot, available only in the full version of Malwarebytes), which is good at preventing the problem before it happens. I for one use full MBAM (someone here answered another question recommending Malwarebytes coupon codes shared by other users on http://news.dtcdeals.com/malwarebytes-coupon-code to save on the purchase) I prefer it since it has a scheduler to run scans and upgrades by itself.
This should get rid of the problem but if not, go for a fresh install and restore from back up. Good luck! :)
