efefd.dll lives in my system32 directory and is now loaded with Explorer, IE and Winlogon, I cannot delete it. Relevant entries in the registries come back everytime after I delete them.

This crap pops up IE windows refering to WinFixer or other stuff.

How can I get rid of this stuff?

Here is output from HijackThis

Please download VundoFix.exe to your desktop.
  • Double-click VundoFix.exe to extract the files
  • This will create a VundoFix folder on your desktop.
  • After the files are extracted, please reboot your computer into Safe Mode. You can do this by restarting your computer and continually tapping the F8 key until a menu appears. Use your up arrow key to highlight Safe Mode then hit enter.
  • Once in safe mode open the VundoFix folder and doubleclick on KillVundo.bat
  • You will first be presented with a warning and a list of forums to seek help at.
