POrt 666 TCP attack:
Attack FTP simply installs a custom version of Serv-u invisibly.
Quick fix: no quick fix programs
Trojan B' Gone plugin might be as well.

Manual removal:
Remove the Reminder key located in the registry at: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. This can be done with regedit or any other registry editing program.
Change the load=Wscan.exe key under [Windows] to load= in the win.ini. Which can be done with any text editing program.
Reboot the computer or close the trojan.
Delete the trojan files WScan.exe and drwatsom.exe in the windows system directory.

If you got Port 666 UDP attack then its the N0kN0k Trojan, in this case:
Attack FTP. 666 UDP N0kN0k Trojan/ 777 TCP, AIM Spy Application.
