I tried to do that yesterday but it would not run gt kept stopping it i dare not put the flash drive back into this laptop to try and download it again incase the flash drive now has a virus i dont want it on this laptop

 

Sorry it took so long I've got a sick granddaughter at home from nursery

What you need to do is d/l Malwarebyres into the other PC and run it

put in the Flash drive then run it again if it is on the flash drive it will recognise it and deal with it

Then put Malwarebytes onto the Flash drive and copy it over then run it

Here are what you need to do to remove it

use the other pc to look at it then follow instructions it is very simple

Malwarebytes is ok to use alongside kaspersky. AntivirusGT can't spread via USB drives neither.

so krapersky didn't pick it up? suprise suprise. In safe mode, ctrl+alt+delete, run task manager then you can run exploere.exe from there to get your menu back.
