    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
