Read all the way down at the link until you get to download MBAM:
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/malware-removal/remove-xp-antivirus-2008-2009
Download MBAM and read the rest before you run it. You may have
other stuff - the Hijackthis prep link is there in case that is so - but you
should have gotten rid of XP Antivirus 2009. Think about being careful.
