Well, the spyware apps like above mentioned are good to detect and sweep any spywares, but not suitable for trojans.

Trash (Uninstall) your Norton.

Go to www.nod32.com and download a trial version of NOD32. It IS indeed a trial version, but it is fully functional for about 30 days. That means you can scan your systems with it and try to delete the virus.
