Persistant worm refuses to shift

I've been trying various tools and following a heap of advice and I just can't get rid of this virus. So far it has mashed up by McAfee Security Suite and now resists all other tools that I've used. It launches the program iexplore.exe repeatedly and seems to have something to do with the jucheck.exe file.

As I say I've tried everything. The worrying thing is that it's also stopping me from booting in Safe Mode - I just get the blue screen when I try.

Is there anyone out there that might be able to help me?

    The jucheck file is part of the Java update process - you can turn this off by simply unchecking the "Check for Updates Automatically" checkbox in the Update tab of Java Plug-in Control Panel.

    BTW I've cleaned out using ATF Cleaner and scanned with several different products including Windows Defender, Avast, and Spybot search end distroy.

    Hmm, the newest thing is that the Spybot program has stopped working (file not found). This has happened to a lot of the spyware programs I've tried to install and is what happened to my McAfee anti-virus software. At the moment I can't get a single piece of anti-virus software to install successfully.
