Thanks Curtis,

So if I understand this correctly, the trojan horse was in a Word macro/file
and the purpose was to get passwords for dialup connections. I assume the
purpose was to kidnap or zombie a/some servers or simply to get free Internet
time. The question is how do I get rid of the .exe file and do I need to do
any registry editing?

Cheers,

Brian
