    They keyword you mentioned is Virtumonde.

    There is a tool called Vundofix, do a google, and you will find it.

    Due to forum rules, I cant say too much, even this will probably be removed by a mod, but the above tool is specialized for removing this harder to eradicate virus.

    Its simple enough to use, just click scan, wait an hour or so, then clean. It may require a few restarts to eliminate it completely.

    Virtumonde is a generic virus, one that seems to download more in the background in my experience, hence why your finding your av is not doing much.

    btw: you said
    "ive reinstalled 5 times, each one with a full format"

    If this is true, then your virus is being put back onto the machine by something your loading from (ie. External HDD, USB, or CD/DVD).

    no, formats aren't entirely clean sweeps, there is still data left over afterwards which can be recovered

    Well yea,but basically I would think one would have a virus free machine after the format.

    Yeah, i did that, and same thing...
    THEN i got tired... and didnt use anything for my backup.
    I went straight to installing my AV (ESS) and my controllers... all downloaded...
    after reinstalling i got the virus. T_T
    It seems its an MBR virus or something.

    What do u recommend me to do?
    Sell the HDD :p? or how do i remove it... its virtumonde stuff... an a.dat and a c.dat... plus a removalfile.bat

    Im on Ubuntu atm :D and no viruses... *installed windows on VMware... no viruses lol* *lost 20GB of metal T_T* (BTW XD)
