Ok, so I have a virus that keeps coming back, I keep deleting it with Malware Bytes, AVG, and CCleaner, and everytime I start the computer, it returns. How can I efficiently get rid of it without sending it to an expensive computer-technician-dude.
Pop in the Windows disk and do a format.
Format is the answer to your problems...

It would. Try to kill it with ComboFix before you reformat.
[QUOTE=Tovleman;28910383]Woulden't a format delete all of my programs? And my windows partition?[/QUOTE] uh, yeah
Try checking your registry and disable any startup entries that you consider dangerous. And if that doesn't work, backup all your important crap and re-format Windows.

For your programs, you can make a list of everything installed on your computer current Windows installation and just reinstall them when you format your computer.
