Hello,
I too hate this of all viruses because of it's ease at moving around.
Here's some info that I hope helps. First of all you should get yourself
some type of detection program (ie. virus detective, interferon, etc).
After locating which pieces of software are infected, throw them in the
trash can and empty the trash. I know this sounds very bad if you have
no back up's, but I have yet to see anything which can save infected
applications. Don't try to replace anything until you are sure the entire
disk is clean. While nvr is bad it doesn't seem to be able to remain after
being trashed. Also first check your system folder. It tends to attach
itself to the system and finder first. Also the programs mentioned above
are public domain if you need to find them.
Hope this helps
