    You can try and down load superantispyware and see it that can remove it

    Is your MalwareBytes fully up to date - run an update before scanning. Maybe try running it in safe mode (F8 on boot), as these things can hide themselves well once running - as you have found with SAS.

    I read somewhere that it can block malwarebytes update servers , but if you can update that should sort it
