Did you delete all your restore points and set new ones after running malwarebytes and deleting the offending files? Did you delete your cache?

Don't think I have done anything that leaves "restore points", but other than that I deleted everything that could possibly hold spurious data.

Windows and some programs automatically set restore points before performing certain functions, it acts as a safety net. These will have copies of the crapware that can then reinstall itself. Update and Run malwarebytes again and delete the offending files, then go here for instructions on deleting and resetting clean restore points.http://www.majorgeeks.com/content/pa...m_restore.html
