This virus appears on the "process" tab in windows task manager and also in the "start up" tab in system configuration utility.
Have been successfully remove with AVG and Spyware Doctor but it keep coming back again and again.

All the best.
Cheers.
PS,
I wouldn't use AVG if I were you, it's notoriously ineffective. You might want to use Avast instead.
PPS,
tarmgr.exe is a trojan spyware created to look like tskmgr which is "Task Manager". It's a very bad security threat.

tarkmgr.exe is not the same as taskmgr.exe (which you need)
tarkmgr.exe is not a virus, it is classed as spyware/malware hence the anti-virus will not get rid of it properly. Try Ad-aware, Spyware Blaster, MS Defender, etc (good anti-spyware programs) to get rid of it.

It's not a virus.
However it's a malicious program we called as aspyware.
I suggest that u use Spybot Search & Destroy.
I don't recommend u use AVG coz it sucks in tackling spyware ..

Damn you guys!!!
I usually seem to be the only person around here touting Prevx1 as one of the best security solutions available (and I'm glad as it's earning me loads of points ;o) ), so I guess I have nothing further to add except the previous answerers are correct - Prevx1 will scan your PC and remove this infection free of charge!
All the best...

This program claims to detect and remove it, and for free:

I've never heard of prevx.com before but according to about.com it looks like a legitimate program and company.
