Firstly, antivirus programs will NOT remove these as they are malicious codecs, although they may find reference to them and remove it but upon rebooting it's back again.

Therefore you need to use a 'layered' approach to removing this parasite.

Download from Softpedia Secure Download (RO), install, run and check all boxes then click Apply and then reboot. This tool re-enables what codecs/viruses have disabled

Download, install, update, scan and follow on screen prompts.



Malwarebytes Anti-Malware:

Remove all infections that it finds after scan.

Disconnect your computer from the internet

Run the tool again to ensure no traces are left.

If there are the reboot into Safe Mode and run FixVundo again.



If your desktop has changed or icons are missing also use:

If the problem persists, turn OFF System Restore and scan with the above programs in Safe Mode, Right click My computer %26gt; select Properties %26gt; System Restore Tab %26gt; Tick Turn Off System restore on all drives.



After scans are complete and machine is clean remember to turn system restore back ON and create a new restore point.



Once your scans are complete and your machine is clean, uninstall some of the programs, I suggest that you keep Malwarebytes for manual scanning, Spyware Doctor for realtime monitoring and Spybot. The remainder can be removed to save drive space, but you may want to keep the installers for future use.
