I wish you the best of luck in what will probably end up being a very extensive battle. My best tools against it were SAV Corp., Spybot S&D, and AdAware SE - using them I at least kept the computer usable, but I was never able to get rid of it all together. Hince the reformat.

Same here. And then two weeks later my aunt got it and i figured it out.

Download AVG free onto a thumbdrive from another comp as it blocks you from visiting the site. Install it in safe mode. Run it. Copy and paste the paths of all the infected files it finds and manually delete them and empty your recycle bin. Restart and you should be good.
