    Another thing you might try, since it's a win98 machine that was hacked and 
    *all* the developed trojans I've heard of that would work on win98 either 
    use TCP or UDP, would be a simple port scan. Port scan TCP, port scan UDP, 
    make sure *every single port* is checked. When a high port shows up that is 
    suspicious you may have nailed your problem right there. You may even get 
    lucky if the offenders haven't changed the default port and your port 
    scanner (like nmap) would be able to tell you which trojan it is right 
    then/there.
    
    From my experience, the 3 most common you may want to have him look for 
    would be:
    *1.  SubSeven
    2. Back Orifice
    3. Master's Paradise
    
    Keep in mind though, if you find one there's a very good chance there is 
    another that was installed as a backup, almost anticipating that one be 
    discovered.
    
    Good luck --Michael
