TrojanDownloader.WinTool unable to delete/remove

Hi there, this is my first time posting, but I've had trouble removing this trojandownloader and I have no idea what to try next. I installed all the programs as requested on the forum rules, and the only one that detects this is Ewido, but it says "error during cleaning" and detects 7 of these programs, each with a different set of numbers at the end of the whole file name (C:\Windows\TEMP\~121249.tmp). Another program I had downloaded, CClean, detected 8 of the trojandownloaders, but could not delete them either. I have found a lot of other spyware and adware and cookies and have been able to delete those. This is the only type that has been this stubborn. I even tried removing them through another program in safe mode. The programs either detect this and say they can't delete them, or they say I'm clean.

I believe this file got on my computer as a result of one of those websearch toolbar popups that install themselves onto the computer. A few weeks ago I was getting this popup when I started my computer and about every 15 minutes thereafter saying "there is a pest installed deep in the operating system, we need your help to remove. Please restart your computer in safe mode and run this script 'ppcleandeleteatreboot'" or something to that effect, I don't remember exactly. I felt hesitant about doing this because it seemed weird, so I did a search on the internet of the batch script and didn't find any results. So we restarted in safe mode and ran the script. But almost immediately that same popup warning came up, and kept doing so. I'd click on the taskbar and just close. Immediately after AOL Spyware would pop up and tell me it just blocked 2 items, one being the websearch toolbar and the other trojandownloader. This same sequence of events happened over and over, so I know they are connected. I deleted the websearch toolbar through the ewido program, and the warning popup never happens as of late. But I believe these trojandownloader programs are a result of the batch script we were running in safe mode trying to remedy what we thought was the problem. We probably did that about 7 times, and that's how many of these we have not.

Any help would be great! I can find the files if I type the number at the end of the file name and do a search in all files and folders, but when I try to delete from there it says "cannot delete, read only file, write protected or in use".

Thanks!
-Jennifer
