initialsite123.com a browser hijacking virus attacked my laptop yesterday.

i have tried a lot of methods suggested around the Internet but my current issues is unsolved.

the initialsite123.com home page is gone, however, when I went to the chrome settings to change the engines and delete this initiasite123.com, it seems that it is not going away and it keeps on regenerating similar engines under the same name with some random numbers. for example: 91initialsite123.com, 84initialsite123.com.

i have tried AVG, Avast, SUPERAntiSpyware, SpyHunter(now uninstalling this is another problem), tdsskiller, rKill, Zemana, MalwareBytes and RogueKiller. They worked but not completely, the damn initialsite123.com is still my default search engine, no matter how i change it, its still there, as my default search engine.

resetting chrome does not help either.

due to this malware, it also caused me to be unable to surf net through chrome, and this also affected my IE.
