So a couple days ago I got the Security Tool virus. I was able to get rid of the active infection through shutting down processes and deleting Application Data files and registry keys in safe mode. I then downloaded Ad-aware Pro and got rid of approximately 200 copies of Trojan Vundo. Though the full blown Security Tool popup has not returned, the "8 random numbers.exe" process appears occasionally, and I'm still dealing with talking Firefox popups, websites linking to advertisements, etc. Also, Ad-aware detects a malicious process every few seconds.

I tried downloaded MalwareBytes, having heard good things about it, but once I install in the mbam.exe file is nowhere to be found. This error pops up:

Unable to execute file C:\etc\etc\mbam.exe
CreateProcess failed; Code 2
The System cannot find the file specified

What do I do now to clean up my poor computer?
