I did dump the private key planning to write it out on paper...

Since the hack I deleted my hacked wallet.dat
then restarted core to generate a new address and made a new passphrase.

My anti virus scan didn't catch anything

Is my NEW address also compromised?
Does it not generate a new private key?

I cannot possibly correct your Microsoft Windows Lifestyle. But allow me to remind you that "anti-virus" programs are a bunch of fraud. Never ever rely on a fraud. They are just windows with progress bars. Most probably your anti-virus is just a trojan. And most of you who uses Windows Operating System have this notion that antivirus programs are legit and you never suspect it. Antivirus program is not a god. Do not worship it. Shift to using Linux and this thing will never happen again. Study LINUX. You will never ever have this problem again. You will not need a stupid antivirus or anti-malware created by fraudsters. To steal your Bitcoins.
