XP Deluxe Protector bug really got me good. Stuck in BSOD loop

I got hit with some bug called XP Deluxe Protector an hour or so ago. I looked online and found others saying run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, which I did. It found XP Deluxe Protector as well as all its component and removed them, as is customary with Malwarebytes it had to restart to remove the rest of the components of the virus. Well now I can't start my computer up in normal mode. currently I am on Safe mode with networking and it works ok over there. Whenever I start up in normal mode it loads to the desktop (after hearing the "welcome to windows" sounds) it crashes to a BSOD which stays up for about 3 seconds and then restarts. It just stays in that loop. What can I do to fix this. I just got done with a restore and it took me almost a week. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Re: XP Deluxe Protector bug really got me good. Stuck in BSOD loop

a little more info.

Everytime I start (in safe mode as normal mode crashes) and I run Malwarebytes the same things keep coming up (6 or 7 items). Most can be removed except the following, it says they need to be removed on start up

Folders Infected:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\lowsec (Stolen.data)

Files Infected:
c:\WINDOWS\system32\lowsec\local.ds (Stolen.data)
c:\WINDOWS\system32\lowsec\user.ds (Stolen.data)

could these be causing the BSOD on normal mode startup? How can I get rid of this?
