Can't delete .exe (virus) and can't kill process
Boggin:
Did this problem start after you downloaded Free Video Converter as it looks like the problem arises from then, especially as it included Babylon which is something you don't want on the computer.
Let AdwCleaner remove those and if you want Free Video Converter back on, choose the Custom install option if it gives you one, else look out for check boxes that will give you unwanted bundled software unless you uncheck them - but first let's see how you get on after the cleaning.
AdwCleaner will produce another report after the reboot to show what it has removed, but if they are still present, then there is another program that I follow ADW with and that is Junkware Removal Tool which is lower down on the AdwCleaner page.
You don't get a preview with that program but it displays its report on completion, but first things first.

Free Video Converter is there since years. This thing which is causing this problems has been installed like 1 week ago...and as far as I know I don't have any Babylon stuff, but maybe I'm wrong...I always do custom installation of programs and choice not to install toolbar, browsers, home pages or other stuff...
I already tried to make Adw remove them, but I get a BSOD...everytime I try to remove them with whatsoever program I get a BSOD...
Boggin:
Removing adware shouldn't cause a BSOD - there's something much more serious going on here.

That was dumb from me. I did an huge mistake. I downloaded this stuff that should've been an hack for a very old game that no one plays anymore, I wanted to do a private match with 2 friend of mine and have a bit of fun. Obviously the choice was wrong, and I knew before that it was wrong, but I tried and that's what happen when you do dumb things...

Btw I, once again, start up my PC in Safe Mode: I removed the .exe's (they show up in safe mode too this time, and in safe mode I can remove them with no problem), I removed all the strings on the regedit and now it looks like every part of the virus is gone. 6230blabla is not even showing up in the msconfig anymore. I don't know if that's a good way to remove a virus, but I think that worked...
