..or you could also try AVG

AVG Free - Download Free Antivirus and Antispyware for Windows XP and Vista

Or you could also try Avira

I would recommend Avira for protection, but trust me, MalwareBytes removes viruses amazingly.

I love Avira actually, whenever it detects a virus I made it say "Virus Detected" ha.

You could try super anti spyware an avast also, turn off system restore before you run it in case its infected that to reinfect the computer when you think youve got rid of it, dont forget to re-enable it after.

AVG does suck, its overrated.

I use Avira, and run MalwareBytes if I got an infected laptop.

And if you want to uninstall it youve got to sell your soul to the devil and sacrifice a small child.
