I let my room mate use my computer while i was away for the weekend, and i returned to find this program called Green AV running. It's continuously telling me that there's things wrong with my computer blah blah it's just a bunch of bullshit. I ran AVG but it didn't get rid of it. I can't find the process and it's not in remove software or program files, nor can i find it in the registry. It's just a tray icon saying "Hey you have 41 virus's let me help you!" So essentially i'm looking for a program to get rid of this. I remember there being a simply program that was very good at this sort of thing, but i don't remember it :(
It's also started blocking websites saying they're virus's, websites i've been going to for years.

Ok, run this program in Safemode. You don't install it, it's just a simple EXE.
It simply finds, and deletes viruses.

OR do this.
Open the task manager and end "greenav2009.exe"
Then search your entire computer for "greenav2009.exe" and when it's found, send it to the recycle bin, and empty.
Restart your computer, and it should be gone. I have had this one before from my mom.
Mbam.

Avast is a good first step.
Also, who's rating everyone dumb?
