Update

Been running about a day now since using "roguekiller". Threat not showing anymore in Microsoft Security Essentials repeatedly as before. Have run multiple scans and no threats showing up.

One of a couple of things possible. Roguekiller fixed/disabled the threat within the registry entries, or, it fixed a registry entry to not allow it to be seen by malware detection software, and it's now hidden and still there. Sort of suspect the latter as MalwareBtyes now opens very slowly compared to before and also getting some "redirects" when trying to open some links. Know way of telling for sure, but I think there is something still there.

Going to assume at least for the time being, that it is an inactive threat. Going to be away from my desktop for about 6 weeks although my wife will be using it from time to time and will probably just reformat when I get back home just to be sure. Don't have enough time to do it before I need to leave.
