Zombie Spam Relay

After reading an article by Al Fasoldt, a syndicated tech columnist, about zombie
spam relay bots, I searched this forum for advice on how to detect and possibly get
rid of such infections. I didn't find a clear answer. Fasoldt says you cannot find
nor erase them. Is that it? Is there nothing I can do? Please note that I don't
know if I even have any, I am just being cautious.
I turn my computer off, but do not use a power strip to completely kill the electrical
supply. I can't help but think that doing so might harm my computer. My connection
is DSL, and I have Wndows XP Home.
Is there a way to at least identify if I have any such infections? Any advice, or
better yet, any solutions?
Thanks,
Bo
