For some reason it can not remove this virus that keep installing its self along with fake warnings of a spyware on my computer says part of the infection is running in memory and I have tired everything.What ever it is, it boots before Spybot on system load and is already running there for spybot cant remove it. I coudl use some help because my next step is a system rebuild and I really dont want to have to do it.

It shows a non exsistant folder location in Spybot as the source of the file that it cant remove. Once the system reboots it undoes the repairs of the registry entries and sweep only puts me right back where i began same issue cant fix issue program running in memory.

You're infected with the SmitFraud trojan, or maybe another variant of it. :sad:
