Make sure that your anti-malware software is running, then download the
latest signatures and run a full scan.

Comprehensive anti-malware software scans for all types of malicious
software in the background, on demand and on schedule. If you don't have
comprehensive anti-malware software, you're a sitting duck.

For now try scanning your system with /several/ of the better online
scanners, such as:
Kaspersky Antivirus (http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner)

Download HijackThis from www.trendsecure.com. Run it, save a log, and
post the log at one of the many sites that support HJT, such as
spywarewarrior.com, bleepingcomputer.com, and http://aumha.net -- but
not here. Within a day you'll have step-by-step advice from an expert on
cleaning up any malware infestations.

Even the best detection and removal software can't fix every malware
infection. If none of the above remove the infection, you may want to
show the computer to a professional. You might need to erase your hard
drive and start over.

Vavseyi.dll is a know malware file.
Metefovu.dll is a know trojan.

These may just be remanents of the virus and malware that were left over
after your anti-virus and/ your anti-malware left behind .
Either way, i would run the following two free programs.
1)MalwareBytes Anti-Malware (MBAM for short)
2)SuperAntiSpyware (SAS for short)
These two programs are free and will find and remove just as well as the
paid versions
Dl, install, update and THEN run each program separately.
It speeds up the scan if you delete your temp files, (TIF) temporary
internet files, cookies you don't need and empty your Recycled Bin first.
