I think I have solution to your problem. you just need to perform the following instruction to remove trojan win32.ofical-E.
First restart your computer and continue press f8 during the bootup process in order to get startup options. In Safe mode with networking select START option and when your computer start use spybot search an destroy to scan the system it finds all the malicious and then prompt me to restart the system again in order to get rid of the bad registry entries which it found so far and will solve this problem. I think that any anti virus malware program will do the same thing if started in safe mode with networking. Best of luck and hope this information will help to remove this malicious program and get rid of it. After performing it I got my problem solve.
