Vundo gen virus

Windows Defender couldn't remove the file and i have been prompted that there's this trojan everytime i boot up my Laptop. I've tried installing the superantispyware program and it managed to remove two of it. But there's this one trojan which i can't seem to remove even though i have performed the scan a couple of times. Hope you can help! Thanks in advance! Logfile of Trend Micro HijackThis v2.
