    Default virtumonde & virtumonde.prx & micro Antivirus infections - help please

    running on Micrsoft Windows Vista (SP1 not yet installed but has been downloaded automatically).

    Downloaded & updated SPYBOT 1.6 & ran as administrator & it detects but cannot clean the virtumonde infections.

    I believe virtumonde is linked to file in users\appdata\temp folder named yaywwwpi.dll which cannot be deleted & is named in dozens of registry entries including run keys that I have deleted in registry but they immediately reappear. Same wit cmds run32dll entry for it in msconfig, can uncheck & restart but it still loads.

    Micro AntiVirus blackmail screen pops up as soon as web browser (MSIE) is opened.

    Key strokes keep getting intercepted and so all keystroke typed do not appear on docs or web pages.

    Tried boot with F8 but won't boot to safe mode. (Windows Vista).

    Help please I don't know how to get rid of this problm.
    Thanks
    Perry

    * Once the scan is complete the scan button will now read save log. Click this button to save the log file to your PC. Once you select where you would like to save the file it will open in your systems default text editor. Typically this application is Notepad. Post the log here.
