Hmm, you'll have to do some digging I suspect, it sounds as if the value in your registry is still active and perhaps you can't locate it. You'd be wise to try this if you haven't

Generally works pretty good, I'm surprised Malwarebytes didn't have an effect, did you use the 'root kit' version?

It can be stopped I'm quite certain, unfortunately you've got to keep going through the same steps over and over as I'm sure it's reattaching itself to your browser add ons.

If you find a way to kill those specific values, you should be back in working order. You may not be able to delete the directory in your registry, but there is a way to trick it into stopping.
