Terminal Servers with Roaming Profiles. Remove spyware and it comes back!

I am running 3 windows 2003 servers using terminal servers.  We also use roaming profiles.  We do use the uph Cleanup on the profiles.   We have had servers infected with many spyware problems, we clean them.  Users log back on and it infects it again.  Anyone have a clue to why it would keep re creating this spyware?

Have you run your scans on the servers/clients in Safe Mode? If the issues keeps returning it sounds as if something is hiding from normal mode scans.
I'm uncertain as to what suites you are using for scanning. You might try malwarebytes (it's free and reliable).

We purchased the viper software, but was a dead end on the roaming profiles.  ( so it seemed)  I am using spybot now -   I will try and boot in safe mode and run.  Thanks a bunch and will let you know how it turns out!
Also run Hitmanpro to see if it detects anything

I ran hitmanpro yesterday.  It  found nothing.   The next morning when users logged back on, the spysherriff appeared again.    
I also deleted all roaming profiles.

There were only a few showing unable to verify -   from IBM that i think are ok and a miniwinagent.exe.    ( I am scanning a malwarebytes now)

It looks ok now, but i did clean everthing up this morning.   I just wonder what will be there on Monday.  At least witht the tool you showed me, I can pin point much better!   Thanks!
For miniwinagent.exe :
double click it in process explorer to find its path and upload it to virustotal
