Daughter has once again managed to infect the computer with some trojan anti-virus type thing, but this one has messed things up really bad. I have been through this sort of thing several times over the past 5 years or so, so I attempted to resolve it myself. Somehow this one manages to interfere with the file system, so I am unable to see pretty much anything on the computer, (hopefully it's all still there), I tried to run combofix, I know you guys don't like that, sorry... with some infections that is the only thing that will remove enough of the infection to get anything else to run. In any case combofix failed to run anyway. I used rkill and I was able to get superantispyware to update, and then, after rebooting, I was able to run it and it detected what it called a vundo variant, and claimed to remove it. We were getting popups about a damaged file system, and some sort of windowssystemrestore program that was running fake scans and listing all kinds of problems, those have stopped since the superantispyware scan, however our desktop is still blank, and anything new placed on it is not there after rebooting, our program files list is blank, the recently used programs list is blank. If I try to go into my computer and click on a drive, it just lists the folders created by combofix and vundofix (I attempted to run vundufix after the superantispyware scan to see if it could help, but it didn't detect anything) I will include the scan log from superantispyware

If someone could help me, I'd rather not have to restore this system, I'm not even sure where the discs were put since the last time I used them was before we moved here almost 2 years ago.

Rerun RKill and immediate run MBAM
Do not reboot until after MBAM.
Next run MBAM (MalwareBytes):
Please download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and save it to your desktop.
MBAM may "make changes to your registry" as part of its disinfection routine. If using other security programs that detect registry changes (ie Spybot's Teatimer), they may interfere or alert you. Temporarily disable such programs or permit them to allow the changes.
