Also reinstall any browsers you got. (manually delete any related folders left in profile a and use ccleaner to clean registry before reinstall) For IE roll it back a version by uninstalling the Windows update if you running 7, then reupdate

Personally I'd reinstall Windows as such an infection can leave gaping holes that'll f*ck with Windows after being amputated.

Windows reinstall is always the best option after virus infection, although often not necessary for Windows to function. It's just a matter of whether you can be bothered to reinstall all the software afterwards. I tend to do it every 6 months regardless, a common tactic if you want to keep a pc running at optimum speeds
