I should have mentioned:

I didn't note whether the instructions included turning off System Restore before you do the cleanup. If you run WinME or WinXP you need to do that, to prevent Restore from putting something back from an infected backup.

For WinXP, in Windows Explorer, right click "My Computer," click "Properties," Select the "System Restore" Tab, click to put an "X" in the box where it says "Turn off System Restore for all drives."

Same procedure to turn it back on after you've gotten clean and rebooted once or twice.
