try safe mode with network..

if useless you need to boot from a cd or another device to clean manually..

or a better an easier approach is to take the hard disk out and mount to another clean system (as a secondary disk - be careful dont boot from it and be sure by arranging from bios set up) and disinfect it..

Loads of sites have it

Neighbour found it and infected with norton360 and gun target pictures.

We found it and missed it with Avast and some homework pictures.

No porn involved

Agreed, I had something like this last year, Antivirus2008 or something, from memory it stops your antivirus software from downloading the correct updates.

As Ian says try www.malwarebytes.org but do it in safemode!
