My spouse contracted this nasty malware on her notebook and Malwarebytes did not see it. I had to resort to manual removal. Took awhile but I ultimately got it cleaned out. Did find a toolbar remover on-line. This hijacked the search function and caused IE to start throwing errors on Windows 8. Might say that MSFT's built-in anti-malware did not see it either.
