Post here trying to get some leads as how can I get rid of the above trojan.
Using xp prof and I ran Norton but it did not find anything (either in safe
mode or normalmode with latest definition). I ran housecall but it does not
seems to be unable to fix it (either in safe mode or normal mode). I also
use Sophos SAV32CLI to clean it but to no avail.
Its located at c:\windows\system32\xkrdk.dll. Can I just delete "xkrdk.dll"
file? I noticed that I cannot turn of the screen saver. It will always goes
back to the default setting at 10 min (after "apply" it)........ any other
options other than clean installation, thanks
