I would say no
Download SDFix and save it to your Desktop.
Double click SDFix.exe and choose Install to extract it to its own folder on the Desktop. Please then reboot your computer in Safe Mode by doing the following :- Restart your computer
- After hearing your computer beep once during startup, but before the Windows icon appears, tap the F8 key continually;
- Instead of Windows loading as normal, the Advanced Options Menu should appear;
- Select the first option, to run Windows in Safe Mode, then press Enter.
- Choose your usual account.
- Open the extracted SDFix folder and double click RunThis.bat to start the script.
- Type Y to begin the cleanup process.
- It will remove any Trojan Services or Registry Entries found then prompt you to press any key to Reboot.
- Press any Key and it will restart the PC.
- When the PC restarts the Fixtool will run again and complete the removal process then display Finished, press any key to end the script and load your desktop icons.
- Once the desktop icons load the SDFix report will open on screen and also save into the SDFix folder as Report.txt.
- Finally copy and paste the contents of the results file Report.txt back onto the forum with a new HijackThis log along with the Vundo report if anything was found and\or removed.

if that fails try this in normal windows mode
Download combofix.exe- Double click combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
- When finished, it shall produce a log for you. Post that log in your next reply with a new HJT log please.
Do not mouseclick combofix's window whilst it's running. That may cause it to stall.Ex forum ambassador
