    Hi,
    Have a users machine with this Trojan. Our Anti virus software found it and shreded it (Sophos) However on reboot it comes back. I looked on Sophos website for instructions on how to remove the nasty, downloaded their latest files and an application to remove it, ran both. Looked clean. Ran Spybot and Adaware 2 reg entries cleaned. Used the latest stinger from MCAfees found nothing.
    Looked in MSCONFIG (Machine is win 2k service pack 2 btw) removed internat.exe.

    Empyted temp internet files (which is where Sophos keep s reporting the nasty is located) Rebooted, still there?

    I logged into the machine as admin ran all the above and it found nothing. The user logs in, bang theres the trojan!

    Here is the Hijack this log from the machine taken under the users login :-

    I'm no expert on HijackThis logs - learning fast :), but have you run an online trojan scan - in the users name?

    Does the user have any mapped shares? May be getting the critter from another machine on the network.

    Couldn't use any online scanner as our firewall config wouldnt let them through (and its out of my control too :( )

    I managed to get hold of something free (cant remember the name now as I'm at home) and that found nothing.

    Then re ran Sohos and it found nothing, so it looks like its gone now.

    Very odd indeed. :confused:

    Thanks for your help as usual gents. Will see if its returned tomorrow.
