I have the WIN32. FuJack virus on a network of about 400 computers, and I would like to know if anybody knows of software that will "cure" or clean / heal infected files as opposed to just deleting the files. I have tried AVG, AVAST, KASPERSKY, BITDEFENDER, and none of them work...

If your computer does not have an up-to-date antivirus, or does not have an antivirus solution at all, follow the instructions below to delete the malicious program:
1. Use Task Manager to terminate the worm process (it may be called "spoclsv.exe"). 2. Delete the original worm file (the location will depend on how the program originally penetrated the victim machine). 3. Delete the following parameters from the system registry (see What is a system registry and how do I use it for details on how to edit the registry).
Delete the following file: %System%\drivers\spoclsv.exe
Delete all copies of the worm from the hard disk.
Delete the following files:
autorun.inf setup.exe
from the root directories of all removable disks. 4. Update your antivirus databases and perform a full scan of the computer (download a trial version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus).
In order to remove this worm completely, every PC need to have the latest anti-virus.
Last year, my office have over 2000 PCs that have Fujack infection and it took a few months to clean every PC. This is because my company use Symantec and the Symantec live update in some PC's stop updating for no reason. This prevent the outdated Symantec anti-virus from detecting the worm. The worm come back to the share network drive everyday after Symantec anti-virus on the server delete it from share drive. The problem was solve after the administrator sent the latest anti-virus update to every PC owner and ask them to manually update their anti-virus.
Currently, we have another worm in our network. W32.looked We are unable to clean it because we don't know where it come from. But whenever symantec delete it from share network drive, it will be back the next day. The administrator have sent the latest update to the PC owners but the worm is still active in the network.
I don't think there are any utility that can cure or clean / heal infected files. Corrupted program files like excel or words need to be reinstall.
Worm.Win32.Fujack. aka WIN32.FuJack.l, W32.Fujack.J, W32.Fujacks.q etc.
As well as counterspy as has already been suggested use A-Squared Free: http://www.download.com/A-squared-Free/3000-2239_4-10262215.html This is not a limited version but a full tool to clean your computer from Malware, Spyware, Trojans, Backdoors, Worms, Dialers and Keyloggers.

Click on Scan and ensure deep Scan is selected then click the Scan button.

You have 2 options at this point: 1. reformat the hard drive and then reinstall your operating system. 2. Take it to a computer repair service. The problem you are having is extreme and your options are limited. I had a similar problem and ended up having to reformat. Know now however, reformatting erases everything on the hard drive, so hopefully, you backed up everything to an external disk or storage. Good luck, that's a tough issue.
