Remove Green AV

Green AV is a rogue anti-spyware program designed to scam users into purchasing a license in order to remove fake infections that Green AV reports. This parasite is a variant of Green Antivirus 2009. Both Green AV and Green Antivirus 2009 claim that if you purchase their software, $2.00 of their profit will be donated for enviromental protection. This is just another trick Green AV uses to make itself look like a legit program. Do not click on any of the popups or alerts it produces. Here is a screenshot of the parasite:
