If all else fails (and I have to fight malware a lot as I work in a school that was fool enough to run a 'Laptops for Students' scheme for a number of years) I run ComboFix from safe mode, which is a weird little heuristic thing that run in a command shell box and seems to be a silver bullet for the really annoying stuff that the normal scanners miss (but misses the vast majority of stuff that the others get so you can't only use it)
