Default keystroke logger malware virus

Has anyone had one of these nasty buggers? It appears to be a very sophisticated one and may be in the "kernel" layer of our computer. It has hi-jack our BofA passwords, personal info, used our Verizon broadband aircard to send our information to whoever/where ever and maybe even used our broadband to send spam -- made us go over our 5G TWICE! Also, got a hold of my credit card number and starting charging and sending me "presents". What a mess, but nothing too bad or unresolvable yet...

We are buying a MacBook this weekend since most of these bad guys don't waste their time programming virus' for the Mac, but does anyone know if the GeekSquad at BestBuy is knowledgable enough to rid our PC of this or do we need to find an expert/ex-hacker?

Thanks!
