This post is for everyone:

Here is a carbon copy of the post I put on Facebook:

Standard Spy/Malware removal process:

NOTE(s) / Disclaimer: Seriously have a professional look at it if you even have a question in your mind. Also, If it isn't broke - Don't fix it! I'm not responsible for you breaking your equipment, destroying your data etc. I am in no way liable for anything; so proceed at your own risk. These are basic instructions and I will not be providing support. Do not ever do this in a business environment. These tools are very powerful and have the ability to seriously hose your system. This is for informational purposes only! Never run any of this in Windows 8 or with your antivirus active!

Step 6: Run rKill
Step 7: Run TDSSKiller 
Note: If you had to reboot after TDSSKiller - just re-run rKill and make sure your antivirus is disabled.
Step 8: Run JRT
Note: Again, if you had to restart - re-run rKill and make sure your antivirus is disabled before continuing.
Step 9: Run Combofix
Note: If you are still having an issue - try running Combofix in SafeMode.
Step 10: Reboot & re-enable your antivirus
