[B]Hello and welcome to Techspot.[/B]

The reason it keeps coming back is, maybe you need to turn off system restore. This will delete all your restore points which is where the trojan is probably living. Do a full system scan with your antivirus programme, followed by spybot, and Adaware. Once you have finished and are certain everything is clean, turn system restore back on again.
