you could try getting superantispyware, I think this has a boot sector cleaner which is what you seem to need if there is still something there after a so-called clean up

A quick update, the virus destroys the firewall settings, both Microsoft and aftermarket. So even when the virus is removed, it is not possible to install a new firewall without doing a re-install.
The tech guys are very excited about it.....glad they are!
