    First, lets begin by removing the file, follow me below:

    1) Boot into Safe Mode

    2) Be sure you have "View hidden files and folders" enabled per the tutorial. Now go into the folder C:\WINDOWS\system32 and locate the following files:

    apigc32.exe

    apiwb.dll


    3) After removing the above files, reboot and run HJT again and remove the below entries, please remember to close all open browsers before fixing anything with HJT!
