arabeyes and arabyonline Malware/hijacker issue

My computer unit has been infected with a hijacker/malware named "arabeyes" and "arabyonline" and it was adminitratively embedded on my google browser's search engine. I already scanned my unit using spybot and any other scanners available out there like (malwarebytes, adwcleaner, revouninstaller, kaspersky, avast, avira and even try spyhunter4 but unluckily it needs to be paid first before you can remove it). I manually remove it on the regedit by searching the string "arabyonline" and delete all the registered keys there but still no use. Please give me an idea to remove this hijacker/malware. I am patiently waiting for your reply and kind heart. Best Regards.
