Hello I don't have a clue how I got this virus I have tried many security scanners.

Like:

avira
malware bytes anti malware
search and destroy - spybot
microsoft security essentials


Looks like I may need to delete it myself or if anybody has any good software to delete it, please tell me.

Read on for more info:

So apparently this virus targets your browser mainly.
This virus will not let me open windows explorer. (It doesn't load any pages, and just says cannot respond)
When I try to open alot of my desktop items it makes the icon fade away.
To acces these icons I must right click, then click open. (The same for most of my start menu icons)
I also tried ending some of the processes, which did nothing.
I went into my (c file, program files, and deleted the IBryte folder.
Going to "remove or add programs" and removing IBryte did not work either.

Please message back with a good way to manualy delete or any software you know will get rid of it for free.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, and hopefully replying.

Ok, try these things and see what happens.

1) Boot in to safe mode and do a system restore to before you got the problem.
2) Boot in to safe mode and use "msconfig" to remove all start-up programs that dont belong.

Did you try restoring in Safe Mode?

And search for "msconfig" You get this.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Then go on services and tick "Hide MS services"

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Then, un-tick any that you dont know.

Next, go on to start-up.

[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Now, remove any programs that dont belong there.

Lastly, restart the computer.

There is no need for a system restore.
From looking on some malware sites the infection youve named seems to install a BHO (Browser Helper object) which is probably the most of the problems you are receiving.
