text: how do i get rid of the virtumonde.g virus/spyware? somehow, the spyware is connected to microsoft windows explorer and that makes it even more difficult to delete. also when my windows defender detects it as a process, it shows me the path and where the virus is coming from. when i go to delete it, it says that the file is being used by another person or program. even in safe mode it does this and i cant delete it. the file is pmkji.dll try adaware: http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/  free software.
