Try Malwarebytes. That's been a good one for me.

Can you start in safe mode and delete it from there?
If not you'll probably need to use ERD Commander or BartPE or something similar to remove it. Malwarebytes is a good start but sometimes has trouble with resident malware.

malware tools may miss it but if you have up to date virus definitions you should be able to remove/delete it using antivirus

Another option, SuperAntiSpyware http://www.filehippo.com/download_superantispyware/ is also good (download, install, update), best run in Safe Mode.
