(I was using IE instead of Firefox because my work on-line calendar won't work on Firefox.) I did a search on the Trojan name and eventually wound up on http://www.bleeping computer.com. I wound up in the Forums section and someone had published detailed instruction about how to remove this Trojan.

I'd recommend downloading "bleeping computer" and setting up a free account. They have lots of free downloads and tutorials.
Have you tried the IE rendering engine for Firefox for your online calendar? Everything I've tried so far that doesn't work in Ff has been okay when I just open it in an IE tab in Ff.

It's the IE tab add-on/extension for Firefox.
