WebCry hijacker - how to remove?!

Webcry (www.webcry.com) is a browser hijacker that makes it so whenever you search somthing using popular search-engines (Yahoo, Google, MSN), and you click the link that your looking for, it re-directs you to webcry.com and then to some sort of ad website. WebCry can also show commercial ad's (with adult and gambling content).
We recomend to use Spyware Doctor anti-spyware to remove WebCry and other spyware, trojans, viruses, tracking cookies, dialers and hijackers from your PC.

Disable this registry values to remove WebCry manually:

(NOTE: When you try to manually editing system registry, you risk destroying your PC. It’s highly recommended you use an automatic spyware scanner to determine you’re infected with WebCry and than remove it.)

I, too, have been infected with 'Webcry'. NO AMOUNT OF DISINFECTING, WITH ANY SOFTWARE HAS REMOVED 'WEBCRY'. Not even editing regedit & regedit32 has worked; it has been recommended that two files, namely 'wupeng.exe' & 'e404d.dll', be renamed & then deleted.I have never been able to find these two files. What is more, no searching/editing of registry has even found 'Webcry'.
To repeat what I said above, NO AMOUNT OF DISINFECTING, WITH ANY SOFTWARE, HAS REMOVED 'WEBCRY'.
