I will recommend to use Eset NOD 32 OR Quick Heal Anti Virus for Removing all kind of viruses as i found that this both are the strongest of all. Also check that virus definition are up-to-date.

Files that are detected as Infostealer.Gampass may be malicious. It is found as Trojan you require to find the Trojan remover for it.

To delete the value from the registry :

Important : Symantec strongly recommends that you back up the registry before making any changes to it. Incorrect changes to the registry can result in permanent data loss or corrupted files. Modify the specified subkeys only. For instructions refer to the document: How to make a backup of the Windows registry.
  1. Click Start > Run.

  2. Type regedit

  3. Click OK.

    Note : If the registry editor fails to open the threat may have modified the registry to prevent access to the registry editor. Security Response has developed a tool to resolve this problem. Download and run this tool, and then continue with the removal.

  4. Navigate to the following subkeys and delete any registry entries that refer to the threat:

    Code:
          HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
          HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
  5. Restore the following registry entries to their previous values, if required:

    Code:
          HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\"Hidden" = "2"
          HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\"ShowSuperHidden" = "0"
          HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\"NoDriveTypeAutoRun" = "145"
          HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\SHOWALL\"CheckedValue" = "0"
  6. Exit the Registry Editor.
