Hmm, sorry..., I've been losing my mind lately...

Rebuilding your desktop is an OS 9 trick... I thought that you were having problems in 9, and not X...

You should check to make sure that someone hasn't stuck an amusing little Apple script in your start-up folder. Apple scripts are an easy way to make someones life miserable...

If the trojan had infected OS 9, you had bset make sure that everything in X is the way ou left it, anyone that has access to MacOS 9 can do what ever they want to the disk, as there isn't permissions. So with a text editor someone could do a lot of damage. Just look through the Library/ folders in you Home directory, the root directory, and in the system directory to make sure that there isn't something that looks funny...
Oh and an easier thing to check is to go into the Login Items Control Panel and make sure nothing funky has appeared.

Just be carefull, things don't exactly like to be played with in there...

You could check to make sure that no new users have been added, but it is difficult to create a new user for X from 9, I mean, it has to be possible, but I wouldn't know how to do it, places to look are in the /etc and NetInfo, but again, these aren't safe places to go randomly deleting stuff.

Investing in a Virus Scanner for OS X would be a good move to make, you'll probably end up regretting not having one eventually..., I'm starting to get nervous since I haven't had the money to purchase one yet, either. But, I am planning on burning my home folder to disk soon and reformating and reinstalling without MacOS 9..., I haven't touched classic in ages. That and I just realized that I don't have my users set up the way I normally do with Admin, Dhej, and Test, and so I've had a sudden attack of paranoia...

Well, gotta go...,
Dhej
