Thanks for all the help everybody, I have definately learned something new today about the good old Windows systems and NTFS.
(Something else you may want to learn is word-wrapping in your mail client.)
I'm just very curious how it got on my computer to begin with, but on to the fix action. I was so mind boggled and bothered about this on my machine, I almost (keyword) reloaded my entire machine, but as somebody mentioned earlier about a rundll command and walla done. I can't believe it was that simple. The funny thing about it, no anti viral tools or anti trojan tools would work period just because I think as somebody already stated it was using an ADS which apparently is a great way to hide new trojans on any NTFS machine. This forum is by far a great tool to learn something new everyday and I definately have learned something. Thank you for all your input.
Be very, very careful -- if you don't know how it got on to your machine, then you don't know what else could be on your machine. And if you /do/ find out how it got on there, please let me know. That's the one thing I haven't figured out yet. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Network with over 10,000 of the brightest minds in information security at the largest, most highly-anticipated industry event of the year.
