I would doubt that it is completely gone. Most trojans don’t go down so easy. Normally write them self into the system restore and system registry. First I would do a search for a web site that has knowledgeable people about Trojan removal. And you might as well do a search for a program called HijackThis also. They will want to see a copy of the scan this program produces. Read the rules of the site about posting your problems. Most site want you to give a description of what is going on with you CPU and then will want you to scan using the HijackThis program, then post it so they can go over it and see if there is something still on your computer. One thing you do not do is after posting the Hijack list is run any virus, spyware or Trojan scans because it will most likely change the list form you first scan from Hijack. This makes them very angry. Good luck.
