I don't know what Spaz has been looking at but I found a few guides that don't have you downloading everything under the sun.

getting rid of a virus like that can be complicated
Do you know if there are rootkits? Sometimes when you think they're gone, they're actually still there.
It'll probably be pricey... but I always get my computer serviced at places like Office Depot when I know something is fishy with my computer. Last time, I apparently had SEVERAL viruses that came from a source I had no clue of. I learned a few things from that, so I dunno if I can be of help or not.
But if one isn't computer savvy to begin with... uhh... it's probably better to let someone who knows what they're doing to handle it, otherwise one can just make things more muddled or even worse.
War is God.
yeah and how do you know how many of those solutions are legit or not
and... no. They probably don't. They probably are trained professionally. That is an extremely cynical and naive stance to just blanket everyone in those kinds of jobs as just any other simpleton who Googles "how 2 remove virus". Where do you think solutions on the internet come from? Fairies?

War is God.The solutions come from someone who figured it out, probably an expert themselves, and passed that knowledge on. You can tell what's legit or not by using your own common sense. On top of that there's a wealth of knowledge about this stuff that you can find in a few keystrokes.
I kept my old computer running fine using Google and a bit of common sense. And I had lot of problems with that one because I was of the mindset that I could download tons of free stuff and get away with it. When it died though it wasn't because of software problems, it was because it damn near snapped in half.
So until you can tell me what the experts do that I can't find on my own I'll stand by my statement.
