Ok, and I'll try running Avast again in Safe Mode after having turned off system restore this time and see if that makes a difference.

Thanks for all your help, Max!  :)

Go back to page 1 of the thread-link, and read everything, especially about updating Java and other software versions. Also run online non-resident scanner(s) to get all the infected files, because the size of the infection is not known, and manual removal may be rather tricky....

not related to 'cure' your problem but you seems to use obsolete Java build, latest is 1.6.0_03
