When you removed the virus , did you make sure it was completley removed and it didn't leave any traces in the registry ????
Some viruses plant themself in the registry and disguise themself as a program or entry that the PC thinks is totaly legit........
Check back on information about the virus and look for any information on Trendmicro or Norton, for any tips on cleaning the registry...........
There is usualy a help page to check for registry entries this virus might have created .................
Then when you sure all is clean ,defrag the PC,this will put all the files back into their relevant place................
Also worth a shot is this, if your PC is virus free and you have Win XP, go to system restore and select a restore point, a date when you knew for sure your pc exepted all your hardware settings...and was running ok..............
Then after doing this virus scan again, just to make sure it is clean..........
update your virus software on a regular bases , so it detects the latest virus in circulation........
