    Try booting into safe mode and emptying your recycle bin.

    I would Erase the contents of your recycle bin with Eraser 5.7 http://www.heidi.ie/eraser/download.php. Just emptying the recycle bin leaves the virus on your HD, in the unused space. In which case you would Erase unused disk space to get rid of the virus permanently.
