You need to run all virus/malware scans in Safe Mode. I don't know what
"everything I can think of" encompasses, but you might try scanning in
Safe Mode with either Sysclean or Dave Lipman's Multi-AV:

Then make sure your NAV is a current version (not earlier than 2004),
the subscription is active, and the virus definitions are updated. Do
another thorough scan with it in Safe Mode.
