As everyone in this community is well aware, I'm not a Windows fan, but we all seem to use Windows for something.
You mention that your system has been infected for months which is a pity because my first course of action would be to restore a system to a previous time "restore point". I always find that is the quickest way to get rid.
However, these would be my initial lines of attack. No guarantees given.
- Restore the system to a previous point in time - "restore point".
- Download Malwarebytes free edition, update and run full scan. (Totally agree with Jim post#2 on that. Great product.)
- Download SuperAntiSpyware free edition, update and run full scan. I find Malwarebytes and this product can be run concurrently. Another great product.
- If all that fails, or your system has trouble booting, then resort to a Linux based product that allows you to scan and bomb viruses without having to boot Windows. Download BitDefender free edition DVD image on a different system and burn it to DVD. Then boot the infected system with it. It should then find and use your network interface to go to the web and fully update itself. Then do a full scan. BitDefender is just superb. Well it would be, wouldn't it, being Linux based.
I never thought that I'd actually contribute to a Windows thread on this forum!! Ah well, I suppose there's a first time for everything.

datetime::timezone::local::win325.18
DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Win32(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Win32(3)
NAME
DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Win32 - Determine the local system's time zone on Windows
VERSION
version 1.63
SYNOPSIS
my $tz = DateTime::TimeZone->new( name => 'local' );
my $tz = DateTime::TimeZone::Local->TimeZone();
DESCRIPTION
This module provides methods for determining the local time zone on a Windows platform.
HOW THE TIME ZONE IS DETERMINED
This class tries the following methods of determining the local time zone:
o $ENV{TZ}
It checks $ENV{TZ} for a valid time zone name.
o Windows Registry
When using the registry, we look for the Windows time zone and use a mapping to translate this to an Olson time zone name.
o Windows Vista and 2008
We look in "SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/TimeZoneInformation/" for a node named "/TimeZoneKeyName". If this exists, we use
this key to look up the Olson time zone name in our mapping.
o Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server
We look in "SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Time Zones/" and loop through all of its sub keys.
For each sub key, we compare the value of the key with "/Std" appended to the end to the value of
"SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/TimeZoneInformation/StandardName". This gives us the English name of the Windows time zone,
which we use to look up the Olson time zone name.
o Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Millenium Edition
The algorithm is the same as for NT, but we loop through the sub keys of "SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Time
Zones/"
