Yes, you will have to hit Enter after each line.
Do you have a problem with the recycle bin? As far as I know with the newer versions of the VX2 malware, they do no longer put that desktop.ini into the recyclebin.
You can check from a command prompt if there is a desktop.ini file
cd \...
Certainly agree that BartPE is a very useful utility. Everyone should have such a cd.
However I am a little bit in doubt whether it will solve your problem.
Just deleting these files should be no problem using one of the utilities that delete files on reboot - Killbox, MoveOnBoot...
First unzip HijackThis to its own folder. Don't run it directly from the zipfile.

You are absolutely sure these entries are not listed in HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Uninstall?
Did you check all the subkeys with the long alphanumeric numbers as well?
Did you look in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall ?
If I read it right you recommended to use the Customize tab. Didn't you?
Btw by default Windows only saves the customizations of 400 folders. You'll have to change that if you want to customize more folders.
That is not necessary if you use the folder.jpg file.

Zaphod, that's true in most cases.
But...
- some AV programs don't work in safe mode.
- some malware programs do run even in safe mode - the latest Virtumondo variants for instance. Lspak.dll belongs to Virtumondo.
Be very careful about that lspak.dll file. You may break your internet access.
Download LSP-Fix and remove lspak.dll as "Layered Service Provider".
Afterwards it should be possible to delete the file.
Do you by chance also get random IE popups since the problem started?
This recycle bin problem may be a side effect of a VX2 infection.
Copy and paste this command into Start - Run:
cmd /c more C:\Recycler\desktop.ini >> "%userprofile%\desktop\look.txt"
That should create a file...
