Yes, it does appear that System Restore did not clear properly. Try this to see if it clears it out for you.

Reset and Re-enable your System Restore to remove bad files that have been backed up by Windows. The files in System Restore are protected to prevent any programs changing those files. This is the only way to clean these files: (You will lose all previous restore points which are likely to be infected.)

1. Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
2. On the System Restore tab, put a check mark in the 'Turn Off System Restore' check box.
3. Click OK, and then click Yes.
4. Restart the computer.
5. Repeat steps 1 - 2, this time clearing the box beside 'Turn Off System Restore', click 'OK'.


Let me know it this helps.

One more thing to try.

Go to Start < All Programs < Accesories < System Tools < System Restore. Check "Create a restore point", Click Next, add a description of your choice, than click Create. This will give you a fresh Restore Point.

Now to remove all of the old ones. Go to Start < All Programs < Accesories < System Tools < Disk Cleanup. Select your (C:) and click OK. Once the scan is done, click the More Options tab and under System Restore, click Clean up... Click Yes at the "Are you sure you want to delete all but the most recent restore point?" and OK.

Let me know if this helps.
