Can you go to the "Run" menu, type in "regedit", search for it and disable it from there?

The best is just to back up your files and reformat.

It is better!

@ PHEESAYOUR ,
make u no mind them all, just go get AVAST anti-virus ver 4.6 or 4.7, and also try kaspersky antivirus as well.
They will get rid of that virus in all their hidden locations.
Dont try any other things apart from the solution am giving out, if you go tamper with yur registry just know yur system is gone forever.

@  3d_hunter ,
what is it that you are talking, the poor helpless guy is asking for your help and you are saying email me for more info, why not spit it out here on the thread.
You guys just place yourselves on the step you never belong.

My guy  PHEESAYOUR,just go get either kaspersky or avast antivirus at the popular OTIGBA MARKET (COMPUTER VILLA).

Stay cool, anything for a fellow nairalander.

Get Any Internet Security not AntiVirus.
Free Antivirus is not as effective as Internet Secuitry. For Example if you open webpage which is corrupt or has trojan or worm your IS will notify you and close the page. Like all this scamming site

Have Virtually used nd tested  all antivirus name it AVAST,AVG,AVIRA,PANDA,eScan,NOD32,KAS. with the worst virus u can imagine. Trust me what u av is not virus, when you come across virus u would understand

I use Norton Internet Security with 3YR License and i recommend it. It heals your infected file instead of delete.
Really cool i dnt av to worry till 2012

Just Google Search
