Dude start using Linux and dump Windows 7. I'm sure the virus caused enough damage and possibly hacked all your files and logged every keystroke. The best Linux distro for me ( if you got a decent fast one or even slow will run this fine) Ultimate Edition 3.4 LTS you can get 32 bit or 64 bit. I am using 64 bit and it;s perfect and 100% free along with all the software you want is free. Windows viruses will not pose a threat on linux since its a different filesystem and OS. Make sure when installed the first thing you do is update ( it's anout 7 months of updates for the OS and every free program on it is patched) . You can change the way it looks in 1000's of ways, its free, no need for anti virus software, no anti spyware stuff, no disk cleaning crap or PC managment, no firewall since ip tables is running and the program firestarter can disable the ip tables if something is blocked. Also a faster Linux distro but not as good looking and lacks some features the Ultimate has is Linux Mint. They get the job done,

Try this:



Firstly, boot your computer to the Safe Mode menu screen. You do this by repeatedly pressing F8 as soon as you boot up. Once there, use the arrow keys to highlight Safe Mode with Networking. Continue to boot from there, by pressing Enter. You will now see some drivers being loaded. There will be a pause at some point. This usually lasts for no more than 30 seconds.



If that’s successful, open your browser, copy and paste this link into the address bar and press Enter. It's a direct download for RKill. Save it to your desktop, then run it. It takes just a minute to run. As it's running, any remaining desktop icons will vanish for a few seconds. When the notepad report is displayed, just close it.

RKill SHOULD HAVE STOPPED THE INFECTION(S) FROM RUNNING, BUT IT WON'T HAVE REMOVED IT / THEM.



Now open your browser and download TDSSKiller.exe from Kaspersky Lab. It's tiny, and takes just a minute to run. It hunts down and kills a specific family of rootkits.

Regardless of the results, open your browser and copy and paste this link into the address bar, and press Enter. It's a direct download for the free version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (MBAM). Install it and get updates, then run a full scan (still in Safe Mode):



http://www.myantispyware.com/mbam



You should now delete RKill and TDSSKiller.exe, as updated versions are often made available. Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware can be easily uninstalled, should you wish to do so, but it may prove to be beneficial in the future.



After this, try rebooting normally. If that's successful, I recommend you run another full scan with MBAM. It will detect malware that wasn't running in Safe Mode.



Hope this helps.

I do agree with knock out... Getting a new computer would be reasonable after getting a trojan that horrible! :U
