Removal Steps:

STEP 1

Download VundoFix.exe and save it to your desktop.

   * Double-click VundoFix.exe to run it.

   * Place a check in the checkbox labeled Run VundoFix as a task. You will receive a message stating that VundoFix will close and re-open in a minute or less.

   * When VundoFix reopens, click the OK button.

   * Click the Scan for Vundo button.

   * Once it's done scanning, click the Remove Vundo button.

   * You will receive a prompt asking if you want to remove the files, click the YES button.

   * Once you click yes, your desktop will go blank as it starts removing Vundo.

   * When completed, it will prompt that it will shutdown your computer, click the OK button.

   * When the computer has shutdown, turn your computer back on.

   * The Winfixer/Vundo infection should now be cleaned from your computer. If you are still having a problem then please proceed to Step 2.
