help with system fix malware

I have been infected with the "system fix" malware. Hoping someone can help. What I have done so far, from bleepingcomputer.com:
downloaded and ran RKill (seems to stop the system fix)
downloaded and ran Kaspersky TDSS killer (never finds anything)
run spybot (have to download and run since system fix had hidden it)
run malwarebytes (have to download and run since system fix had hidden it)

This seems to do the job but system fix is there again upon reboot.

Don't know if I'm doing something wrong and need some help in guiding me through the process.

Sending this through a different computer since so many items on the infected computer appear to be gone. Can unhide some but not all. So I have not downloaded registry backup tool yet. Can this be done on the secondary computer and transferred via flash drive?
Thanks for the help, fddy5

fixed?

Followed slightly different instructions from ... Looks like it has removed the system fix malware. Since I don't reallly understand this malware I guess I can't recommend this fix to others...not sure it works in all situations. Maybe the experts here on the forum can comment.
I'll let you know if everything is still okay in a couple days.
Thanks, fddy5
