Ok lets use Killbox to remove the file/folder that is being so stubborn:

Download Pocket Killbox here - http://www.malwareremoval.com/downloads.html

Now take a look at this post as it will guide you through the installation process as well as the removal process incase you get confused:

Once you have installed Killbox we need to begin to delete the file folder:

If you look at the topic above this is what we are going to do (so read this part):

How to use KILLBOX to delete a file - Delete on reboot kill - Delete on reboot kill

ChrisRLG

Open Killbox and check a mark in the "RadioBox" which says "Delete On Reboot"

Under "Full Path or File to Delete copy and paste this entry below:

C:\WINDOWS\msxmidi.exe

Now press the red cross and a new window will pop up asking you to confirm the removal CLICK YES

Now it will ask you if you wish to reboot click NO as we have more files to add first, copy and paste this entry

C:\WINDOWS\scins.exe

After you have added the above entry and it asks if you wish to restart CLICK YES and the computer will restart
