Woody has it right, you must disable system restore as it will more than likely use your restore points and then bounce straight back in from there.

Jibbar mentioned two programs to run, SUPERantipyware will do it but you can run both to be sure. I'd reboot and run them again to be sure it's gone and then you can re-enable system restore if you choose to when you've confirmed that your computer is clear of infections.

Please ensure that you have decent anti-virus software and a firewall enabled and scan all downloads before opening them.

Abheyb is right, depending on your version of Norton it might not be able to remove ad-ware. If you decide to do that be sure to know what files you're deleting. Be careful however on deleting files from the system32 folder, it can damage the OS.

CCleaner is basically a dedicated cleaner which cleans the unwanted files in your computer...for eg. when you download or open any file or site, at many places it is registered in your computer that is not needed by the computer to work.....its a wonderful software that frees unwanted space...

Norton is basically a dedicated anti-virus.....

I sugess to still install CCleaner



You can find a free download of ccleaner here http://bit.ly/1sJimp9

Disable system restore and try running Malwarebytes in safe mode. Enter safe mode by tapping the F8 key during boot.



When you are sure the virus is gone, re-enable system restore.

The problem is that the B@$^@rd$ that code these phony anti-virus scams are constantly changing small bits of the code to avoid detection and removal. Somes they release a dozen or more variants of the same malware in one day.



The anti-malware products (MBAM, KAV, Spybot etc) are always playing "catch-up" and are always behind a few days in being able to deal with these new variants.



In a few days, at least one of you programs should be able to remove your Smitfraud infection.



In the meantime you could try...

EDIT: DO NOT USE SYSTEM RESTORE...YOU ARE LIKELY TO RESTORE WHAT YOU JUST REMOVED!

I can't promise it will work but System Restore has gotten rid of viruses for me. You go back to a day and all of the settings and software will be just as it was then. Go back in time to before you got the virus.



All Programs / Accessories / System Tools / System Restore



OR



System Recovery on startup I think its F10. This will definitly work but you might lose some saved material, but it asks you if you want to keep everything. There are many instructions to follow, and I would get some help if you need it. It re-installs your operating system from scratch. Ta Da - no virus. Try the system restore first, its much easier.

Ehm..

You can speed up your pc and get rid of viruses, worms and trojans by cleaning up your register. A good free program is CCleaner. Link here http://bit.ly/1sW1Kcp

It's a must have program.
