So does the same thing happen when you reboot into Safe Mode to then
eradicate the pest?
Have you run a FULL SCAN with WD in Safe Mode. ?
Also in Safe Mode, run CCleaner
http://www.ccleaner.com
http://forum.ccleaner.com/index.php?showtopic=1504
Note, When you install CCleaner, uncheck the Yahoo toolbar optiºn.
Note, in Options, Settings, Advanced, uncheck - Only delete files in Windows
folders older than 48 hºurs.
The first time you run CCleaner's Issues scanner you'll have to keep running
it back-to-back until it finds nºthing.
One scenario is a registry key may only be a reference pointing to a
completely different location in the registry and when it's removed then that
reference link is also noticed as being invalid on a subsequent scªn.
It's generally a good idea to keep running the Issues scan until nothing is
listed.

Have you scanned your system for malware (spyware, adware, trojans, and
other pests) using other tools, like Ad-Aware, Spybot S&D, a-Squared, ewido,
Spyware Doctor, Pest Patrol (online)?
