- Malwarebytes
- used successfully
- SUPERAntiSypware

You may have to start your system in SAFE MODE. This can be accomplished by rebooting your machine, and after the bios at the beginning loads, pressing F8 until you see the Safe Mode options menu
Once logged into the system in SAFE MODE, run a scan of your system. Safe mode can prevent programs from running while you’re trying to remove them.
