I'm serious, this is a bad bug. If you ever come across it let me know cause you've only got one or two tries before this thing f--ks your system. I am in hour 3 now of trying to fix this critter. IT BLOWS!!

Been there, done that.
There's a cleaner out there that you can find a free key for to get rid of it if you look hard enough. I haven't found anything else that works other than brute force removal...which is rebooting into safe mode and just simply deleting the thing before it loads.

Thanks for the advice, I found that major geeks has a whole section on it. I finally got it removed( I think) after running their recommended procedure three times.

Sorry I didn't find your thread until so late after your post...or else there might have been something I could do. major geeks is the one that had the remover posted with the key. Their procedure should work though. I ended up doing it the hard way after disabling the exe file that kept replicating the damn dll.
