I'm trying to fix my roomates computer. It has gotten this virus, which seems to be pretty popular right now. It is very similar(if not identical) to the one in this thread:
http://www.computerhope.com/forum/index.php?topic=95177.0

Started off unable to run anything. No executables. No install files. No taskmanager.System Restore etc. Constant complaints from fake antivirus asking for money and opening pop ups. From the look of the forums I imagine you guys are familiar with it.

I eventually managed to get one of the rKill files to run which beat it into remission enough to run other files.

I ran exehelper(log included).
Then I ran Antivir. Which removed plenty of bad files. But not enough to stop it from reinstalling itself.

I ran SuperAntiSpyware. Which removed more(log included). But it required a reboot.

After rebooting the virus had come back with a vengeance. So I had to run rKill and exeHelper again.
Then I ran MalwareBytes which also requested a reboot.

Upon rebooting I received the following message from windows:
"error loading C:users\chris\AppData\Local\srximdsb.dll
the specified module could not be found."

Which to me suggest that some part of the virus is still trying to reinstall itself.

Finally I ran Hijackthis. (log included)
If anyone can take a look at it, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
James.
