Help a layman/computer idiot get rid of this!!!

Hello everybody,

First of I want to thank people for just reading this:

I turned on my computer today and everything had been reset (like when I first got my computer-- a PC (Dell)) I freaked out since I am a college student and all of my files were missing. So I did system restore and everything went back to normal. Then I ran symantec antivirus and Spybot S&D just in case. Symantec didn't find anything neither did Spybot. Sounds good right? Except when Spybot was scanning it went through PornBHO.ru and Virtumonde.sdn .dll, etc. for a long time (this was displayed at the bottom of the spybot window). But nothing malicious was found. I ran Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and nothing was found either. So I searched for PornBHO.ru and Virtumonde... turns out they are dangerous! I want them off of my computer so nothing like this ever happens again!!! Please help me get rid of them!!! I am a computer idiot so I don't know what DSS logs are or how to get them. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

Sincerely,
AM1

PS: I googled the two things and this website popped up : http://188.165.126.154/showthread.php?t=37631

but I can't find any of the registry keys...

• If it gives you a warning about rootkit activity and asks if you want to run scan, click on No.
• In the right panel, you will see several boxes that have been checked (ticked).
  
  • Uncheck IAT/EAT
  • Uncheck All other Drives/Partitions except C:\ (leave C:\ checked)

• Once done, click on the Save... button and save it as "Gmer.txt" at a convenient location. Post the contents of that report.

  Rootkit scans often produce false positives. Do NOT take any action on any "<--- ROOKIT" entries.
