It's Ctrl+Shift+Esc, not Ctrl+Alt+Esc.

You may have gotten lucky and Avast! may have cleaned it, but I wouldn't count on it.

Yeah, originally I typed Ctrl+Alt+Del, but remembered that doesn't bring up task manager on Vista/7 and only changed the last part.

sorry to sound like an a hole, but you kind of deserve it
1. For being an a hole and trying to hack someone, when thats not even what hacking really is
2. For being stupid


However, just try malwarebytes anti malware

Also: delete system 32 folder in your c:/windows folder.
It's where the virus is hidden, it will try to trick windows into thinking it's important system files, but its not. The real folder with windows files is system, not system 32

To be safe I recommend installing Malwarebytes on a flash drive (on a different computer), booting your computer into safe mode, and running a scan.

An avast boot-time scan can uncover a lot, sometimes even stuff that Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware can't uncover. Or, even better, Avira Antivir Rescue System burned onto a CD.

In the future, don't be an idiot and try to "hack". Script kiddie.

Not sure, but find the file name, open Task Manager then go to Processes then find the file name, right-click on it then Click End Process, NOTE: IT MIGHT JUMP ABOUT

To stop the file from jumping about, change the column you're organizing the list by (e.g. change from memory usage to process name, and it'll be listed in alphabetical order). If a process reappears after trying to end it, it's usually "seeded" by a hidden process. That's why it's always recommended to try cleaning any viruses in safe mode - safe mode prevents any unnecessary processes from running, including viruses and their seeds.
