My favorite malware tool is a $13 USB gidget that mounts SATA, PATA 3.5 and 5.25 drives. It is too difficult to clean a live infection. Crack that case and pull the drive my friend . . . easier to hit a target that is not moving.
How you use the tool is as important as the tool you use. Also delete the hosts file as Chris suggested. Good fortunes!
