Hi

I have a bifrost/bifrose virus that keeps inesting my pc. It has messed up my registry. Malwarebytes can find the files, and whenever I delete them and reboot, they keep coming back. It disabled several things like system restore, task manager, run command, changes internet homepage, time settings...

I am including a Hijackthis file and malwarbytes report:

The trojan is bifrose. avira, Xoftspy and malwarebytes detected the same trojan which has infected my registry, one file even pops up back on Hijack this after I delete it. I deleted the infected entries from the registry (using a copy of the registry I got from Kelly's Korner tweaks... since my registry is disabled) but they keep coming back. I also tried deleting them from the registry in safe mode, but to no avail.

System restore has been stuffed, I managed to access it once and all the restore points have been deleted, now I cannot get in.

Can someone hel plese?
