IMO there isn't just "one" you need to try several!

1) boot virus scan
2) safe mode scans always {do all the scans in safe mode}
3) reg scans with avast, avg or your antivirus pref!
4) online scans panda soft, or housecall
5) hijackthis{post a log}, spybot, adaware, ewido, ect

but IMHO the best way to get ride of viruses is a format/install

BTW: trojans are usually installed by mallware, which is user installed
