Think PointIf you take a personal interest in the safety, health and privacy of your PC you are likely to be conversant about most of the threats to these aspects of your system. The vitriol behind the highly disliked and infamous Think Point rogue’s attack should never be underestimated. Following suit with most typical rogue applications, Think Point’s main aim is to scam consumers out of their hard earned money. Where Think Point differs from other rogues is in the intensity of its attack. It’s fair to say this Think Point takes no prisoners while perusing its goal. Think Point will want its victims to believe in its genuineness as a security tool capable of identifying, quarantining and removing threats and unwanted rogueware from their PCs. This is not the case as Think Point is actually a worthless, yet highly sophisticated scam. It is distributed through various means including coming bundled with other rogueware such as the fake Microsoft Security Essentials Alert and illicit websites. Once the infection infiltrates the marked PC it will start reporting on various fake threats. This is all done in an effort to scare and panic the consumer, and to convince the PC owner of Think Point’s legitimacy. As a further attack, Think Point will inform the user the only way of getting rid of these purported infections is by purchasing “missing modules” not included in the Think Point Trial Version. Once Think Point makes a successful sale, the consumer is left with nothing but an empty shell of an application, devoid of any healing or diagnostic powers or capabilities. Of course the PC owner won’t know this, and will falsely believe his PC to be protected. There is no middle ground here. If you value the health of your PC, you need to take action and permanently eradicate Think Point from your system. Follow these 8 easy steps to completely get rid of Think Point. 1) Make a print out of the directions contained herein, as you will have to close all windows in the following steps |

John,
You must restart Your PC, and just after you see your desktop for the first time, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete and it should work. Remeber, you have a very small amount of time!
JD,
ThinkPint is a real threat and we are providing our offered solution (as many other webpages are offering theirs). Our program is not free, but it does a great job removing, and further protecting a computer.
You can try pressing Ctrl Alt Del, the first seconds Your computer shows the desktop (be very fast). Stop the process hotfix.exe. After that You must find this exe and delete it
I was able to ctl alt del and get task manager and choose new in application and I typed in explorer and got my desktop back and stopped hotfix.exe and then I was able to update my virus protection. Thanks for the info, will see now what else is crazy.
faite ctrl+alt gr+ suppr vous accéder au gestionnaire de tache ensuite aller dans processus cliquer sur une application qui s'apélle hotfix.exe cliquer sur arrêter le processus ensuite en haut a gauche cliquer sur fichier nouvel tache marquer " explorer" vous faite " ok" et votre bureau devrai revenir
i do not like think point
I found an easier way to remove it. When you restart, request SAFEMODE and login under Administrator (or any login but the one that brings up Think Point). Once in windows, search for "hotfix.exe". That's the one that starts ThinkPoint. Remove that application, restart again, and you are good to go.
i hate u think point get off my computer its the only one i like i hate just how it shows up right there i can't x out to look up a way to get it off when i can its a black screen whoever created think point rouge programs viruses Trojans have no life
How do you find Hotfix exe? Do you push ctl alt delete when windows is coming up or after when think point is showing? Please help I dont understand some of the solutions.
I can't find hotfix in the processes. it isn't there!
well, I just caught think point the second time, the first time it was easy to get rid off using the described process BUT now the task manager is blocked, I cannot access it after hitting ctrl alt del, only "shut down" and "log off" buttons are available in the menu... what can I do?

Best solution - just wipe the drive and re- program it.
Otherwise you'll just drive yourself crazy.
It brought in 5 different downloader trojans in 3 days on my system.
While i was trying to fix it.
Back your data and purge the whole drive of this malicious threat.
Before it wont let you even get your data back.
