Problems with my Anti-Virus
0
I've having this problem with my anti-viruses for a while now, I can scan with them but for some unknown reason, they can't delete the viruses not cause they're Trojans but they keep saying "Download the full version" or stuff like that.
I try reinstalling 'em but they still don't work, I need help.

Sounds like malware. Get rid of it.
Pardon the grammar. Any tips on how?

Malwarebytes or Spybot Search and Destroy will usually take care of it.
If not, google is your friend.

well those two anti-viruses really will ask you to purchase the full version...
here's a tip.. USB Disk Security has a crack available on the net... you just have to find the serial for it..(sorry i lost my file of my serial codes :( )
change the McAfee to Avira...i recommend it and it has a free version(Avira Personal) but still protects you just fine :D

I highly recommend the two programs Freak suggested, I use avast (good if you want a free one) and a friend of mine uses AVG (though he paid for it).
Use either one and you should be fine.
And are you sure they're the REAL programs? I've seen a few programs pretend to be other well known anti-viruses and ask the user to download or buy a "full version". Where did you download them from?
In any case you might want to also download Malwarebyte's anti-malware and just give your pc a scan to be sure.
Keep us posted ^_^
edit: Sorry, someone already suggested Malwarebyte's.

Yep, Malwarebytes is good. A good, free, and unintrusive AV program that doesn't bug you to upgrade at all is Microsoft Security Essentials. Has good detection, and all the basic stuff you need without getting in the way.
AVG and Avast are also good, but bug you about upgrading from the Free version sometimes.

I suggest using Malwarebytes in conjunction with SuperAntispyware, with a little bit of ThreatFire to top it off. ThreatFire's the most useful out of the lot if you ask me, since it actively checks and denies any suspicious software that tries to run.
Unfortunately, I set it to virus-nazi so it blocks my Steam and Chrome. But, that's what the exceptions list is for.
