A good rule of thumb is that nothing should be running from the temp folder, so wipe all temp folders - c:\temp c:\win(nt/dows)\temp and the temp folders in user profiles. Also be suspicious of anything in system32. I find Spybot's tools a big help in checking BHOs - it tells you if they are dodgy. Ditto programs set to run on startup. It's process list is more detailed too.

Salm is a nasty - got rid of that off a PC only yesterday.
