Virtumonde Disables Spybot S&D In Mid Check

I was running Spybot S&D. It stopped on a virtumonde .dll file in mid check. Dialog window appeared: "... recommended... reboot... and scan again. y, or n."

Y. Result = no change.
N. Result = no change.

Same dialog window reappears.
Spybot stops responding.
Cont-Alt-Delete.. used to end program.

Three separate runs, same results.

Infected pc now off. Using Son's.

For reasons I don't remember, while diddling with this on my pc, from a desktop application window, I disabled the internet connection. I'd read something about infected pc's auto downloading more infection. The connection icon disappeared from the bottom tool bar and I've no idea how to enable internet connectivity when I get back on to work on it!!!

May as well say I'm unfamiliar with much of this sort of thing, but I must look into it as my budget says no repair bill for this one.

Nonetheless, I have a virtumonde varient. When last shut down the infected pc was still fully operational, though possibly slowed.

Hence, my curiosity as to remedy.

Please visit this webpage for download links, and instructions for running ComboFix tool:

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/comb...o-use-combofix

Please ensure you read this guide carefully and install the Recovery Console first.

The Windows Recovery Console will allow you to boot up into a special recovery (repair) mode. This allows us to more easily help you should your computer have a problem after an attempted removal of malware. It is a simple procedure that will only take a few moments of your time.

Once installed, you should see a blue screen prompt that says:

The Recovery Console was successfully installed.

Please continue as follows:
1. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix, link
  Remember to re-enable them afterwards.
2. Click Yes to allow ComboFix to continue scanning for malware.
When the tool is finished, it will produce a report for you.

Please include the following reports for further review, and so we may continue cleansing the system:

New HijackThis log.

A word of warning: Neither I nor sUBs are responsible for any damage you may have caused your machine by running ComboFix. This tool is not a toy and not for everyday use.
