Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] mcafee self destructed

I just bought Norton antivirus 2001, Personal Firewall and Clean Sweep.
because my nieces computer is all screwed up because someone managed to get
himself added to her ICQ program even though she had the security protocals
in place and sent her a trojan file which allowed him to operate her machine
remotely. The new program found the trojan immediately but so far she
hasn't been able to get the machine to run long enough for the virus program
to eliminate it.

Anyone got any ideas what the name of the trojan might be so's I can use DOS
to erase it?
