XP Antivirus is a virus designed to steal your money.
XP Antivirus, also referred to as XP Antivirus Protection, is a virus that disguises itself as a legitimate antivirus program. The virus reveals itself in the form of a pop-up window that pretends to scan your computer and then notifies you that your computer is infected. The virus then attempts to get you to pay for a program to remove the infection. This is, of course, simply an attempt to procure your financial information and get you to download additional viruses.
