XPAntiVirus is the suspect anti-spyware that includes a set of features which do not work, and generates false positives to trick users, forcing them to buy commercial version of this software. XPAntiVirus may be dangerous for your computer, causing system errors and slowdowns. This misleading program can be installed manually or through browser security holes (using trojan horses or worms, installed on your computer). It also hijacked the homepage to obscure websites, sometimes with adult content.

Xp antivirus is a virus itself it will trick you into installing it do not buy the software i had it by acident and i got rid of it by using this

Do a full scan it will check for any harmful files [including xp antivirus and it works really well]

The reson it is not in add or remove programs is because it hides itself in your computer for example say you were going to try to uninstall a security program that comes with the computer it is completely installed in your computer as it bought to advertise on your computer xp anti virus does the same by trying to hide in a file simaler to the secruity program

I hope this helps
uninstall the program
