It all depends on the infection, which trojan do you have.

You're going to need to edit your registry and find suspect files. But for right now, turn off system restore, and give me more info.

alright...few questions...

how do you know you have a trojan?
what's the location of the trojan?
have you tried to manually delete the trojan?
what's the name of the trojan?
how do you think you got the trojan?

guaranteed if you answer those 5 questions...i'll have a way of getting rid of it...
