Cannot reload AVIRA program from saved master file

I have a program from some other company that is popping up repeatedly saying that The AVIRA files are corrupted and I have to buy their Antivirus software to get rid of the virus that has inserted itself into every program file that I try to reload. Is my only solution to destroy my drives, reformat and reload all my software?

Hi Roger Y,

Quoted

Please provide us the name of this software and post a screenshot when you get the message too (You can upload the screenshot here and then post the link to it). I think it's a scareware/rogue.

Have you try the Rescue CD : http://forum.avira.com/wbb/index.php?pag…&threadID=82163 ?
Cordialement - Best regards - Grüße ;)
