Hey guys,
The other day I downloaded a file and I believe I have infected my laptop. I have looked into fixing it myself and have run Malwarebytes and Spybot several times, I think I have removed some of the infection but I am still getting problems with something trying to create "watermark.exe" in a "Microsoft" folder in program files, and trying to exit a userinit registry file.
I have also tried editing things with my Linux partition, but with no success.
here is my hijackthis log:

I am not too fussed about my windows partition, I can reformat if it comes to that, would just like know if I can remove this virus
Any help would be appreciated
At the end of the day I might have removed the virus and am just being stupid. But it would still be nice to know lmao.
