Infected with Vamsoft.exe

Hi all. A few days ago I noted that Windows Explorer started opening a new window when I browsed my hard drives. It also prevented me from enabling "Show Hidden Files" in Folder Options menu, it kept restoring the radio button to disabled. I'm pretty sure this vamsoft.exe file is only a part of the malware; I disabled all unknown .exes (including vamsoft.exe) from msconfig, but it came coming back. I did a System Restore, but that didn't help either. So, here's the DDS log:

EDIT: Turns out that the malware is a trojan called Win32/PSW.OnLineGames.NMY
