    I also had a similar situation (less workstations infected, though). First,
    try to patch all the mashines, with the help of hotfix scanning tool from
    Shavlik/Microsoft:
    
    http://download.microsoft.com/download/win2000platform/Utility/3.2/NT45/EN-U
    S/nshc32.exe
    
    Then you should try nimdascn.exe from McAfee (this is the only one that
    completely cleaned my machines):
    
    http://www.mcafeeb2b.com/naicommon/avert/avert-research-center/tools.asp#Nim
    daScn
    
    This combination helped me, can't say it's 100% the best, but it's worth a
    try.
    
    Wish you luck,
