I would try:
- Unninstall all suspicious programs in CCleaner
- Remove all boot entries besides AV and Windows ones
- Run Emsisoft Emergency Kit and Zemana.

In extreme case, you can reinstall Windows if you have backups. The only way to tell your PC is entirely clean.

(EDIT: I see in another forum that you already solved the problem. It would be nice to update this duplicate entry)
