Hey Guys-
I'm near positive that I picked up the fpsbanana virus while it was still going around, but in any case, something's messing with my computer, and I'm needing a little assistance with it.

When I turn on my PC, McAfee gets randomly disabled every few minutes. If I leave it disabled for too long, a Fraud Anti-Virus pops-up, and claims that I have 1,000,000 viruses, then floods my desktop with executable called "Spam001; Spam002, etc, etc."
With McAfee being constantly disabled, I had to use Spybot - Search & Destroy to try to get rid of whatever is on my computer. After running a thorough scan including every folder on my computer, it found [2 Malware Entries] I then right clicked, and selected 'Jump to Location' where it then took me to my Registry Editor, opening up Proxy Server under Internet Settings. I uploaded a picture of the exact location, to specify where it was tracing from; that can be found: here.
- - - - - - -
After I select to fix the selected problems, it checks them off the list; however my McAfee continues to crash, and when I re-scan using S&D, it found the same entry. When I scan with McAfee, it claims that there was nothing. The same issue appeared with a scan from Avast! Antivirus, and Malwarebytes'.
Help would be greatly appreciated, as I have to continuously enable McAfee to prevent the pop-up, and desktop spam I get, if it's off.
