Are you computer savvy? You can take the hard drive out of the system and slave it to another system and do a virus scan on it. Depending on how badly infected it is, the virus scan should find a few if not a lot of infections and one of them or more is stopping you from running a scan on the infected computer. After the scan you can put the drive back in the original system and then see if you can run malwarebytes and combofix, you should be able to. I've had to that a few times when i've had to work on badly infected machines.

You also should delete all temporary internet files and uninstall anything in add/remove programs that look suspicious.

Does the virus automatically close the antivirus program?
