Bravo!

Next step.

1. Print out these instructions as we will need to close every window that is open later in the fix.

2. Download SmitfraudFix.exe from here and save it to your desktop:

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/files/smitfraudfix.php

3. Next, please reboot your computer into Safe Mode by doing the following:

   a. Restart your computer

   b. Start tapping F8 key

   c. A menu will appear

   d. Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode.

4. Close all open Windows.

5. Now, double-click on the SmitFraudfix icon.

6. When the tool first starts you will see a credits screen. Simply press any key on your keyboard to get to the next screen.

7. You will now see a menu. Press the number 2 on your keyboard and the press the Enter key to choose the option Clean.

8. The program will start cleaning your computer and go through a series of cleanup processes. When it is done, it will automatically start the Disk Cleanup program.
This program will remove all Temp, Temporary Internet Files, and other files that may be leftover files from this infection. This process can take up a long time depending on your computer, so please be patient. When it is complete, it will close automatically and you should continue with next step.

9. When Disk Cleanup is finished, you will be presented with an option asking Do you want to clean the registry ? (y/n). At this screen you should press the Y button on your keyboard and then press the Enter key.

10. When this last routine is finished, you will be presented with a red screen stating Computer will reboot now. Close all applications. You should now press the spacebar on your computer. A counter will appear stating that the computer will reboot in 15 seconds. Do not cancel this countdown and allow your computer to reboot.

11. Once the computer has rebooted, you will be presented with a Notepad screen containing a log of all the files removed from your computer.
Save that log to your desktop, and attach it to your next reply.

      Beautiful!!! Your computer is totally clean.
      One more thing, though. I can see, you're running Comodo firewall already (I didn't ask you to install it, yet), and your Windows firewall is on, as well.
      You can't run two firewalls at the same time.
      Turn your Windows firewall off (it's next to worthless, anyway), by following:
      # Click on the Start Menu
      # Click on Control Panel
      # Click on Security Center
      # Click on Windows Firewall toward the bottom the Security Center Window.
      # Choosing between the “On” or “Off” will turn enable or disable Windows Firewall.

      Post back.
