If none of what has been previously suggested works, the only other way to get rid of it is to make backups of your important files, then restart the operating system.

ok, I got a better idea. If the trojan is IN your reg, instead of formatting, WIPE the registry. That means you will have to reinstall all of your programs etc, but it will most likely be easier and less troublesome than formatting.

hope i helped

You will want to use the following to scan your machine. Go through ALL of them to make sure that you have gotten all the junk out of your system:

Ad-Aware 6 build 181
Spybot Search and Destroy
CW Shredder
Hijackthis(more technical, so use with care)

Once these have been run, your system SHOULD be fairly clean. You can use msconfig and go through the startup tab to remove things you don't want before using the tools I mentioned.
