Never had to do this so I am not sure when to expect a response to my post, sorry if I am posting too often and not giving adequate time for a response.

I was having a very similar problem.

Yesterday, I tried spyhunter from another link, but the version downloaded only detects but does not remove the threat. So I uninstalled it.

Then I tried updating the malwarebyte's anti-malware and ran the scan and left it running while I went to do something else.

And when I checked today, the scan found nothing! Looking in regedit, the offending registry key is now gone!

Maybe malwarebytes updated it to take care of the problem?

To be a little more accurate, come to think of it, I updated and ran the malwarebytes scan yesterday and it found the infected key as usual. Then it asked to reboot to delete it. Then I guess I must have reboot and left the computer running.

Until I checked again today. Running a full scan now to double-check. "No malicious items were detected."

I think I also ran ccleaner yesterday too and cleaned out the cookies, etc. Don't know if that did anything.
