It's best to contact TPR directly for things like that, so they can sort it out.

Which antivirus? McAfee says it's okay, altho it contains one link to a problem;

Problem link is here;

You may want to check with another tool, as I've just found information regarding the product mentioned in that message being a rogue antispyware tool (from a Google search)

Great find, Shane!
These things are nasty remove too.
@Torino - see if you can download and run:
http://roguekiller.en.softonic.com/
and then PC Rescue.
http://live.vipreantivirus.com/
Rougekiller does have options to fix hidden items such as desktop icons and restore broken links.
Vipre PC Rescue is the standalone version of the antivirus from Sunbelt Software.

I'm normally pretty good at finding things like that. It's amazing what Google can do sometimes when given the chance.

I agree, Shane. Their removal can be nasty though. It depends upon which "kit" or how many features the malware developer uses to create the bug. I've been pretty lucky at removing these things, though. I think I have something like a 95% success rate at work.

I know what you mean. Hopefully the OP can remove the tool, and it may be worth warning others about it in case anyone else has that tool or anything similar installed.

Get the free version and run it once in awhile on your PC. Good insurance. http://www.malwarebytes.org/

Looks like TPR is cursed .
One thing to consider, is if you have malware on your PC, you may not get it all off, sometimes they design it to leave remnants. That is why a good malware removal program is a good thing to run, on occasion. Some anti virus programs are better than others. We used Vipre at work and a virus got though, so we removed it and went to ESET Nod 32 ( windows version) .
BTW, windows has a built in Malware removal tool that updates every month. Just go to Run and type in MRT and it will do it's thing. http://www.microsoft.com/security/pc-security/malware-removal.aspx

Just downloaded a few things from TPR then scanned them with "Microsoft Essentials" and no viruses detected.
