Smitfraud - try to run smitrem and smitfraudfix but not working

G'day I'm pretty bad with computers but I've done some research and now know enough that I have smitfraud or whatever it's called, and I've downloaded and installed all the programs that are s'posed to clean it.

I've got

Smitrem
SmitFraudFix
Rogue Remover
CCleaner

Anyway when I run SmitFraudFix in safe mode, I get a message saying "Cannot import C:/smitfrau.reg: Error accessing the registry" and a similar message when I try to run smitrem.

I'd really appreciate some help, I tried to look up what I should do when I get this "Error accessing registry" message but I can not understand it at all!

Cheers

if it doesn't, please restart it into Normal Windows.

Registry
system folders
services

Choose drive , all drives and, click scan all files
and then click scan/clean. After it finishes scanning and cleaning post
the log here with a new hijack this log.

Note: this is a very thorough scanner, it might take anything up to an hour
or more, depending on how many drives you have and how badly infected your
pc is.



Highlight the portion of the scan that lists infected items and hold
CTRL + C to Copy then paste it here. The whole log with be extremely
big so there is no way to copy the whole thing. I just need the
infected items list.
