    Hello,
    I purchased ESET Smart Security 4 for my son's laptop, but he started using the machine before installing the software. Now he has a malware problem with,
    "Best Malware Protection". He didn't download, or install it, but it keeps popping up. I installed ESET and ran a scan but it didn't pick it up or fix it. How do I get rid of it?
    Thank you,
    John

    May you give me the name of the vendor that you mentioned above?("Best Malware Protection". He didn't download, or install it, but it keeps popping up.)
    I am suspecting that your son's laptop is infecting with Rogueware.

    Here is a complete removal guide for "Best Malware Protection" rogueware.

    Complete removal guide

    This rogueware requires manual removal. There is no know AV product that can remove all traces and reset Windows settings.

    Good luck.:D
