If you can delete this file you may be able to access the net. If so download and run spybot and maybe another online virus scanner.
If you can't access the net and you can't delete this file, can you put your drive in another (Well protected) PC as a slave and work on it there?

ran malwarebyte and spybot!

problem all fixed!

thanks heaps!

You are very welcome, I am just glad to be of some help to someone else.

Please mark as solved to remove it from this forum.

also good to use ccleaner to help clean all the temp folders and other shit.
