Try avast! antivirus, install it and schedule a boot time scan once you've updated 
the virus definitions. This will tell it to scan your computer before windows is 
completely loaded, it should get rid of your pesky Trojan since it didn't have a 
chance to load into memory. 

It's a freeware program (have to register for a 14 month key but it's free.) It's 
all i've been using since my subscription with Norton ran out. I've been nothing 
but pleased with it. But disable the sounds in it in the options menu unless you 
like having the living crap scared out of you every time it updates/finds suspicious 
programs

Give it a try and lemme know how it goes.
