WinReanimator Removal Guide

Do you know what WinReanimator is?

WinReanimator, also known as Win Reanimator, is a dirty rogue anti-spyware program usually distributed by porn and other sites infected with the Vundo Trojan. WinReanimator is a clone of the recent UltimateFixer rogue anti-spyware. WinReanimator generates popups and alert messages stating that Windows AntiVirus has detected a spyware infection and you must download anti-spyware protection. This is a scam and desperate attempt by hackers to take your money.

Do you ever get a system alert message like this?

Windows has detected spyware infection!

It is recommended to use special antispyware tools to prevent data loss. Windows will now download and install the most up-to-date antispyware for you

WinReanimator and the WinReanimator.com website are similar to other malicious programs and sites designed to use scare tactics through popups and alert messages. WinReanimator and WinReanimator.com are not legitimate tools to clean your system. WinReanimator cannot be trusted.

In non-techie terms: WinReanimator and WinReanimator.com were created by hackers to extort money from you. Do not under any circumstances download or purchase WinReanimator or any programs related to WinReanimator and the WinReanimator.com website. It is always a good suggestion to avoid clicking on any popups or alert messages that resemble the message above.

I have unistalled the Winreanimator but the darn executable that tells me my system is still infected keeps popping up in the system tray. How do I remove that icon with a red circle and an X in it?

thanks,

If you have only uninstalled the program, there are a few more steps for you to go through. If you have gone through all the steps, you might have missed a file. If you are a non-techie, I suggest you follow the Automatic Removal Instructions. Bottom line Junked is that if the pop-ups keep coming up, it's because your PC is still infected by WinReanimator.
