I found an online fix for this very issue at http://housecall.trendmicro.com. It
wasn't clear that it fixed the problem, but ever since I ran the free online virus
scan with the auto clean feature on it hasn't run, nor has it reoccured. I actually
followed all the steps people have discussed here but for the deleting, and I cleaned
up the registry manually first (not recommended unless you know what you are doing),
but could not get rid of the actual .exe files (just couldn't figure out how I guess),
but then I read a tip about this scan doing the part of the fix I could not (deleting
the .exe files), ran it, and it worked! They are gone!
