In order for someone to advise they'd need to take a look at the system so please start a topic in the Malware Removal Forum

First see that forum's FAQ which also includes instructions in post #2 on how to provide the logs from Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and aswMBR, which are the logs used in the preliminary analysis.

If the infection prevents you from providing the logs please start a new topic there anyway. :)

Best regards.
