Malicious software (mal-ware) is a form of computer program designed with malicious intent. This intent may be to cause annoying pop-up ads with the hope you click on one and generate revenue, or forms of spyware and viruses that can be used to steal your identity or track your activities. ...

well just to be sure... i recomend u do a system scan... 99% that nod eliminated it but threr is always a chance something slips througs.... put it on scan when u go afk or out..., just to be sure, no need to panic though

Catroot, or more specific, the folder with the {F7503E etc} or similar name, holds the system-updates since you first installed W2K. Don't delete it. If there were trojans etc., programs like Adaware and Spybot and Hijackthis would have found them.
