Systems ANY GOOD TROJAN/WORM REMOVERS?

Hi, i just wanted to know if anybody could steer me towards any trojan/worm removers that they personally use and find up to date and works well. I would prefer one that is free, but i know those are hard to come by.

I have a feeling i got a trojan on my comp.
or worm

Well this is pretty good a tool,
http://us.mcafee.com/virusInfo/default.asp?id=stinger

But it does NOT work as a full av protection. I'd suggest you do the online scanning at http://housecall.trendmicro.com
and get yourself a real av product.

I use Norton AntiVirus 2003, it seems to work pretty well. Being on a college network, I've gotten numerous viruses, and it has had no problems removing them automatically.

well I have Norton as my AV and i know it catches viruses

but I need something that catches Trojans and Worms because I have a good feeling that Norton lets those things by a lot of time. I think I might have a hacker getting into my system. but i have a firewall ZONEALARM, plus a router, so I don't know It's just that My computers been restarting on its own a lot especially when IM working on school projects. Its freaking me out. So id like to find a trojan/worm remover specifically.

Slinky -> where and how do i get The cleaner?

I use The Cleaner also. Seems to work - haven't had anything found. ** knocks on wood **

Frequent updates to program.

Try SwatIt , a free trojan and bot remover. Be sure to update before running.

Here's a review & test results.
