This AM a staff member had "Live Security Platinum" taking over her PC.
I think this is a relatively new variant.
Staff accounts don't have admin status.

Short story is:
Running as an Admin
Spybot didn't see it on a scan.
Downloaded Malwarebytes which found and fixed it.

Part of the log is:

Registry Values Infected:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer\ForceClassicControlPanel 
(Hijack.ControlPanelStyle) -> Value: ForceClassicControlPanel

Files Infected:
c:\programdata\7531cc92006afe3c0052668bf875ef60\7531cc92006afe3c0052668bf875ef60.exe 
(Trojan.LameShield)

c:\Users\staffuser\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\deployment\cache\6.0\51\18da3ab3-213c42ba 
(Trojan.LameShield)


My point is, no s/w will find or protect against everything.
