C:\WINDOWS\msbe.dll is infected with Adware.BargainBuddy


I downloaded so emoticon's for my website and all I got was a butt load of spyware and a virus, So far I have been able to get rid of everything with ad-aware, spybot, xoftspy, and avast antivirus but when I scanned my computer with symatic online virus it came up with the bargin buddy file! I have also deleted the program that installed it also and I cannot find the infected file but when I scan with symatic it says its still there! Help me get rid of this please! Also when I deleted all infected files I had system restore shut off!

I just deleted this file (C:\WINDOWS\msbe.dll) and then did a scan with every program I have and so far looks like I have a clean pc

Have you run the "Imunise" tool in Spybot? if not it would be a good idea to do it. You can also enable the "TeaTimer" function, which warns you before letting any program modify the registry.
