Two friends have been infected with the evil Aurora pop-up thing, and I've spent hours thinking about how to kill it. I've installed Avast on their systems and no dice yet. Is there an app that will destroy it, or is the fix deep DIY registry surgery? Thanks!

PCFilter : Is there any way to tell what program inserted something into the registry?
I've been attacked by four seperate virii that sophos claims don't exist in the wild. One of them (netclnc.exe) keeps reappearing in my registry and the system32, and I want to know what's putting it there so I can kill it. Ideas?
