How to remove Virus Doctor manually:
It's possible to remove Virus Doctor manually, but you have to be very experienced in dealing with registry entries, program files and .dll files.
The files to be deleted:
sqlite3.dll
VDocf360.exe
VirusDoctor.exe
%Program Files\VirusDoctor\ViruseDoctor.exe
%Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\VirusDoctor
%Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\VirusDoctor\VirusDoctor.lnk
%UserProfile%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\VirusDoctor.lnk
%UserProfile%\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\s1jqw0bz.default\cookies.sqlite
Remove registry entries:
%UserProfile%HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run “Virus Doctor”
%UserProfile%HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Virus Doctor_is1
%UserProfile%HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform “URVDoc[]”
Please be careful because manual removal of Virus Doctor may seriously damage operational system and sensitive data. Also there is a big possibility of incomplete removal, because some files could be hidden and program could re-install itself after you delete files and registry entries. So we strongly recommend you to use automatical removal tool.
