My mothers laptop got a virus... :suicide: And windows defender offline beta isn't exactly doing it, I just need something with more power that I can boot up from a flash drive ( cant be a CD/DVD as none of us have a DVD/CD writer ) Also the virus that my mom got is the Vista microsoft security 2012 virus so if anyone knows how to remove this with a boot up anti virus that would be awesome, MSE, AVAST and the free version of AVG will not boot up when the computer is already booted and we cannot download ANYTHING.
Download it on a stick and install it with the computer in safemode.

Even though I'm late, this works like a charm

I already fixed this, I had to install Rkill and temp stop the virus and then get MBAM on my PC again and it removed the virus, So I backed up all the important info my mom needs off of her laptop and then wiped her HDD and installed W7 instead of her previous vista.
