Another option from Kaspersky, which I forgot to mention in my previous PM to you, is a live-boot antivirus scanner. Currently this is for Windows OS, so if you're on a MAC or use *nix systems, it won't do any good.

Be sure to reboot the system and conduct a deep scan once more to be sure. These things sometimes have a nasty habit of hiding very well and (rarely) replicating.
