Congratulations. Looks like you have successfully deleted the rootkit service.

Let's go after the hidden file. It may still be present

Start HijackThis & Go to Config> Misc Tools > Open ADS Spy

Checkmark/tick - "Ignore Safe System Info Streams"
Click the "Scan" button
When it has finished scanning, checkmark/tick all that it found
Click the "remove selected" button

PS..the entry looks like this

C:\WINDOWS\System32:18467
