Here is a nice link on how to "Remove Police Pro" malware from your pc, posted for OP and other persons who may become infected with this annoying
problem.
Remove Police Pro from your PC
Remove Police Pro from your PC
Windows Police Pro is a rogue anti-spyware and ransomware program from the same family as Windows Antivirus Pro. Like its predecessor, Windows Police Pro will be configured to scan your computer every time that you login to Windows. When the scan has finished it will state that your computer is infected with a variety of infections and will not remove these infections until you purchase the program. The infections it states reside on your computer, though, do not actually exist and you are just being shown false information to scare you into thinking you are infected.
) and removed it that
way. So far, it hasn't popped back up at least. reply posted on 23-9-2009 @ 11:38 PM by Pappa_Bear

another tip you may try is to turn off your system restore, once you verify your system is clean then turn it back on to eliminate the possibility of it hiding within your restore hives and reinfecting your system.

People... please stop posting vague information about potential malware that probably happened while most-likely surfing ATS with absolutely no
information we can use to get to the bottom it.
When you (members) provide us with enough detail to track down a potential problem, we get to work. If we find a problem, we quickly deal with it.
Without information such as anti-malware scanner log-files or the URL of origin, there's nothing we can do.
If this trend doesn't stop, we're going to be forced to require all issues such as this to be relegated to the complaint form.
Thank you.
