Do you have system restore enabled? Go back a day or when you believe you were not infected.
I posted a removal tool for you iD

Hope your computer is well, I love to see more people posting because God love you all and who know, in heaven God sitting on the white throne with his "heavenmobile" cellphone on his hand reading your blessful post, lol :laughing7:
And he isn't too happy with the hacker, he will have discussing with them.
I feel for you. I had an earlier version of the virus a couple years ago and I had the hardest, most frustrating time getting rid of it! It changed my homepage to a pornography site, rerouted Google and various antivirus site to other pages, and shut off system restore as well as all my antivirus, antispyware, etc. programs! Here's how I got rid of it.
Ewido is an old antivirus that is now called AVG. AVG is free, but I always had problems downloading it - maybe it's changed. Anyway, if you can't get to the AVG site, find your Hosts file. If you're on XP, you will find it at C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc. Open it in textpad and see what it says. It should look like this:
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost
That's my file, so if it looks different, go ahead and copy and past this into your own host file, deleting the old stuff there. It shouldn't have Google or any other site rerouted to different IP addresses.
Once that's done, go look for an antivirus program that'll get rid of it.
Good luck.
I have AVG, CCleaner, Stinger and Removal tools.......boring...

Good tools are pro-active. You won't get infected at all. Fixing things afterward shows your security wasn't up-to-date. Make sure you update your security tools daily. I use www.eset.com and update hourly.

that's why I said "boring" need to clean daily.....
Indeed boring and easy to be forgotten. That's why you can schedule those tasks. Configure once and never look at it again.
