Get Vision from Foundstone as a good start, locate the illicite services and
files.  Do a date search several days around those shown by the services.
Once you've found all the files (hopefully), Google until you've found what
you've got and figure out how it got there and how to clean it.  Also tools
like strings is good for analyzing non-text files as well as many other
tools from SysInternals.
