“A brand new Virus Remover 2008” (textual quotation from this misleading website Powerfulvirusremover2008.com) is just another fake virus remover supported by trojans and marketed at websites with malicious scripts. One of trojans facilitating Virus Remover 2008 propagation is a hijacker that take control over browsing of infected computer; you probably need to remove powerfulvirusremover2008.com hijacker if your have ever been redirected to website entitled Virus Remover 2008, e.g. powerfulvirusremover2008.com. This hijacker is a trojan also interfering with media players thus the players suddenly stop rendering media files. The trojan then may generate additional alert after true Windows notification of error in files rendering. The trojan’s alert will ask to install codec for viewing new types of media and redirect the browsing to websites with malicious scripts which secretly install various commercial rogue programs at infected computer; unless you get rid of powerfulvirusremover2008.com hijacker, this trickery is likely to engage your system into it too."

This site also recommends Spyware Doctor for free malware & virus search at your computer and perform powerfulvirusremover2008.com removal.

Be Aware : - Spyware Doctor is also suspect as a spyware deliverer, although is not, to my knowledge, involved in malware. There are better Spyware and Tojan removal programs.
