Try these Trojan scanners (free)

or

http://www.ewido.net/en/download/ (needs xp)

Update them before you scan, maybe needs a few updates..!

After you've tried another or more trojan scans you should run Hijackthis and post your log in the Hijackthis forum for a moderator to take a look at.



What was the name of the trojan?

I think the Trojan scanners are the way to go. Try . It is a 30 eval version but it cleans everything I have ever seen. Make sure you update it first.
