@thisisu:

Seeing a lot of variants on "Continuetosave", a few examples:
contuInnueotOossAve
contuinnUeToSaave
ContuinUaEotaosave
contyinueteoSaivE
coointiynnuetoosavE
coointiynnuetoosavE
CoonnTinauetossauve
coonteinuuetosavve
coontiinUUetosavE
coontInnuuetosave
coontinueotoysavee
countinUoetuosavE
Same for Browse2save and some others. Any idea where these come from or who's behind it?

BHO CLSID and name are random. As far as I know, AdwCleaner and ComboFix have both implemented ways of detection and removal of this type of adware.
