a 'back door' question

AVG recently found a backdoor viruse, and removed 'beta.com'. Prior
to the removal, 'ctl alt del' was unavailable (window closed
immediately), and I was unable to run 'msconfig' or 'regit'.

Even after the removal, the system still looks for 'beta.com'. I put
a dummy file in its place, to speed bootup.

Today, I noticed that 'ctl alt del' is again unavailabe (the window
closes immediately), and am unable to run 'msconfig' or 'regedit' as
well.

AVG was run, but found no viruses.

Is there another way to determine if something is running that
shouldn't be, like a port scanner, or other program?

Thanks in advance!
