That's great,

then we can do the final clean up

Delete the DDS, GMER and logs from your desktop and any other logs/tools remaining.

Then, set a new restore point:

System Restore makes regular backups of all your settings, if you ever had to use this program to restore your system to a previous date, you will be infected all over again so we need to clean out the previous Restore Points
We need to set a new system restore point:

Click Start > Run > copy and paste the following into the run box:


%SystemRoot%\System32\restore\rstrui.exe


Press OK. Choose Create a Restore Point then click Next.
Name it (something you'll remember) and click Create,
when the confirmation screen shows the restore point has been created click Close.

Now remove all previous Restore Points:

Click Start > Run > copy and paste the following into the run box:


cleanmgr


At the top, click on More Options tab. Click the Clean up button in the System Restore box.
Click on the Yes button.
When finished, click on Cancel button to exit.


Follow the recommendations from my previous cleanup post and you should be good to go :)
