    I downloaded legal files from an unsecure site and recieved malware. I used malwarebytes antimalware and got rid of all but three files which came up with the error it is actively running try to restart computer to have them deleted... upon failure I got spybot S&D and it cannot remove the 3 files either with the same error. (I restarted and the S&D performed the scan and fix before programs started to execute still didn't work) It shows up in windows task manager as ehrecvr.exe... I end process but like most malware, it shows back up after a few seconds in task manager.

    I will do anything that allows me to end this malware. Please help. Thanks in advance for your time.
