Is your DNS setup correctly? If it is, do another virus search. How bad did the virus affect your system?

Honestly, if it keeps messing you up, I'd just reinstall Windows. Take your files you need and store them on a usb or on Google Drive.

Transferring files to the cloud could move malicious files to the cloud, and after reinstalling windows it could infect your computer once they are moved back to the computer, USE CAUTION IF YOU HAVE A VIRUS ETC.....

 

I would run these tools one by one and restarting after each run. (run rkill before each tool). 

malwarebytes is also good at removing stuff from already infected systems.

 

I am also wondering what type of junk you removed...........?

 

Each of these tools are portable and could be placed/installed on a flash drive ( or cd), updated and then run on the affected system to try and fix it. when i do something like this for a windows computer, after I place the usb in my a hardened linux computer (only used for this purpose), then secure wipe the drive so  no  malware is transferred by mistake via usb to another windows computer. treat that usb drive as infected once it is plugged into the machine with issues if you know it has viruses etc...
