Zango sounds similar to spyware programs made intentionally undeleteable so that information on your machine is constantly sent to a third party computer, et al.

Variations of above summaries will exist. If malware, some registry and file entries would be deleted only to reappear. NY State Attorney General is suing some companies for doing software
"which advertised "free" software available for download, including screensavers, screen cursors and games. The Attorney General found that along with these programs, Intermix secretly downloaded a number of ad-delivery programs. One such program was called "KeenValue" and it delivered pop-up ads to its unsuspecting users. Another program, "IncrediFind," redirected web addresses to Intermix's proprietary search engine. Other programs placed advertising "toolbars" on users' screens".
Search for special software dedicated to only removing that malware. Without that software, history says - your fried. Your computer integrity remains way too dangerous to use for anything secure - ie bank account, Amazon, credit cards, etc.
Last time I fixed one of these computers, it was sending information to computers in Ukraine and Russia.
