Since you didn't post the MBA-M log we don't know what was removed. We need to see that log. rkill should have been used BEFORE that first run of MBA-M and since you were able to run MBA-M before using rkill it is likely you didn't need to use it …

You absolutely must run MBA-M, just removing that one file would not remove the infection. It's very likely it is still there someplace. Right now it just can't run, But you must run an updated Full Scan with MBA-M and be sure to have it remove everything found and Reboot …

You need to post the MBA-M log here. Other steps may be required, especially with the number of Trojans found. These may just be the "tip of the iceberg". There very well could be a rootkit on there which will just bring in more infections.
