SpyWareQuake

Optikus

I ran AVG a few mins ago after downloading a virus from a dodgy link by accident, it found 3 trojans and then removed them. Afterwards i noticed an icon in my taskbar. This icon stated i was infected with virus's and had a link to http://www.spywarequake.com/?aff=252.

I then ran Spybot and Adaware which both found this SpyWareQuake, i repaired it using both programs, but it is still in my taskbar after reboot.
I located this program installed in c:/program files/spywarequake. I then uninstalled it using its own uninstaller as i could not see this program in add/remove programs.

Everytime i boot up this icon is still there, even though the problem has supposed to have been fixed by both anti-spyware progs and Microsoft Antispyware.

I now believe this to be some sort of Rootkit, which i have been hearing alot about recently. I ran rootkit revealer and would like to know if anyone can help me remove this malware/spyware.

Here is the rootkit revaler log:
