Locate and delete the following
bold files and/or directories(if there).
ALCMTR.EXE Search your system for this file and delete all instances of it.
Run the killbox.exe file. When it loads type the full path to the file you would like to delete in the field and
check the delete file on reboot button. press the Delete File button (looks like a red circle with a white X). It will prompt you to reboot, select no until you have finished inputting the files you want to delete, only then allow it to reboot and hopefully your files will now be deleted.
This is the filepath you need to enter into Killbox.
C:\WINDOWS\system32\wttamvyx.dll
Once your system has rebooted, turn system restore back on and rehide your protected OS files.
Post a fresh HJT log and let me know how your system is running.
