ive run AVG, Adaware, SuperAntispyware, Malwarebytes, SpybotS&D, Combofix, and a few others.

i believe the virus is reader_s.exe which seems to be popping up on everyones computers within the last week. several tech support forums are being flooded with people asking about it. no fix seems to be available. i dont even know if thats the only one i have. when he avg resident shield spotted it, it had turned my firewall off and windows update off, and changed my internet securities all to low or off.

the scanners and antimalware programs cant remove it live. so they require a "remove on restart" but they arent able to remove it and it comes back on the restart.

according to the interwebs, even searches in safemode wont get it done.
