Need help removing a particularly pesky trojan called Virtumonde. It has diabled Windows automatic update, IE7Pro also is disabled and has started to pop up random webpages (some of them inapropriate for my 5-6year old nephew and niece). Avira and Adaware are quite useless and spybot does its best but Virtumonde keeps coming back. I'm at my wits end and right now trying Vipre and see if it would help me.
Anyone encountered this? How did you fix it(other than reformatting)?

I got fucked by the same trojan, sadly format was the quickest way for me to fix it.

Check out this page for some good info about killing that particular little bugger. I used to see it a TON on customer systems a couple months ago, but it's pretty rare these days. Also give SuperAntiSpyware a shot, it finds a TON of relatively difficult little bastards.
