Yes, McAfee removes the executables, but it doesn't fix the registry damage
done by this thing. Do you know what registry keys are modified?

On my win2k box, the administrative share C$ is gone after the infection.
I'm not sure how to get it back, or what other registry mischief may have
been done.

You could just goto grc.com and grab the letshare, noshare utilities.
letshare should restore it for you.
