Some other notes - this infection is extremely aggressive and attacks on multiple fronts. There are reports of it doing keylogging and password attacks, then 'phoning home' with the information. As soon as I knew I was zombied, I unplugged my network cable.

Your IE session, while seemingly functional, is hacked using a malicious proxy server. It re-routes you to all sorts of nasty sites. You can cancel the proxy server usage, but the trojan will just re-route it immediately afterward.

Chrome and Safari are of no use, as the trojan will not let them load. Best as I could tell, the only exe allowed to run is IE, and that is useless due to the malicious proxy.
