Deleting the Registry entry for a trojan only
partially solves the problem. The Registry entry is
usually used for persistence, so that the trojan will
start up again upon reboot. If only the Registry
entry is deleted, the trojan itself may still be
running in memory.
What needs to be done is that the admin needs to
determine how the trojan got there in the first place,
and then remove it completely. If the os and apps
need to be reloaded from clean media, then the admin
definitely needs to know how the trojan got there in
the first place...otherwise, he's reinstalling the
same holes and vulnerabilities all over again.
