Smart Guard Protection is what many experts label a "malware" infection (which stands for malicious software). This basically means that it will install a working program onto your system, and then perform all sorts of bad things in order to either steal your money or get you to do the things it wants. It will have installed onto your system from the likes of a Trojan Horse infection online, rogue download or even a fake antivirus scan. Typical Antivirus programs (such as AVG and McAffee) will not protect / remove this infection because of the way it's designed to act like a legitimate piece of software on your PC. What's more, it will stop all your current security tools from working, as well as preventing you from opening Task Manager & other programs on your system.
In order to get rid of Smart Guard Protection, there are a number of things you need to do. You need to basically get rid of the 2 parts of the infection which have infected your PC - the main application and the hidden files it places in the Windows folder of your system. Not many people realize this, but the Smart Guard Protection virus will actually store a series of backup files & options on your PC so that it can re-install itself if any of its program files are damaged. That's why many people who try to manually remove this program by deleting the files in the folder below often find the virus coming back:
%UserProfile%\Application Data\PAV\
The way to remove Smart Guard Protection is to use what's known as an "anti-malware" program on your system. This is a type of software which will basically scan through your PC and get rid of all the potential infections that are on it. These basically do what Peak Protection does not, and can be downloaded from the Internet. We've found that a tool called XoftSpy is the best at removing PP2010.
