Amvo.exe - removal from a pc that becomes very slow because of the virus?

Question

Hi,

I am having trouble with removing amvo.exe. As soon as I log on to windows I have a few seconds to open up regedit or msconfig and search for amvo and related files. After that my laptop becomes extremely slow and I can't reboot or complete the removal instructions. Any idea what might work in this case?

Thanks!
