There are so many patterns to GAOBOT, aka AGOBOT, that some AV software is
not able to detect it or remove it handily. Good hints at www.sarc.com and
removal tools for many patterns, if you can identify them. Quickest removal
tool is Hijackthis, if you know what you're doing. Requires some registry
modifications. Some Windows versions require disabling restore and
administrator rights. Safe mode is recommended.

I've noticed a few website content management systems that have clearly been
cracked and various Trojan packages have been inserted. One content
management system is used by several universities and I've had a few clients
infected as a result from different servers using this system since last
November.
