I had a similar virus not long ago. It also gave me a message that I could download so and so program for $X and that'd fix it.
Malware bytes, McAfee, Spybot, formatting the hard drive and reinstalling Windows is what worked for me.
Malware Bytes got me to where I could get to the point of formatting. The virus would close any attempt at formatting in less than 1 second, if the window even loaded at all. Hardly any cmd worked. Simply finding what the program said it was named and uninstalling did nothing.
I did try without a format or reintalling Windows, hoping the other programs got it all, and the virus just reinstalled itself. It lives deep. I think the virus was called alucar.
