Hi Billy
I don't understand why you had trouble finding help at TrendMicro
or other reputable sites and ended up at the scam site Spyhunter.
Google
http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=%22Hybris+B%22+&btnG=Search
produces 8000+ hits with "Hybris B" including one from TrendMicro:

Some of the following removal procedures might be easier:

http://www.claymania.com/hybris-removal.html

(I collected them here to save you and others time, and i hope
nobody has the nerve to complain about my spending time
researching and collecting what may be better alternatives - i'm
not paid to try these out and only provide them because they may
be helpful and save someone time looking through the Google
result list and will help prevent someone choosing a rogue site
with dishonest removal tools)

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
