Latest trojan doing the rounds?
Discussion
Looks like somehow my PC has got a trojan, odd I'm trying to figure out what it could be:
NAV and AVG are both up to date, scanned and nothing found
XP SP2 is installed
Ad-aware finds nothing
windows firewall is on, as is my router firewall
But CMD.exe and ftp.exe keep being opened by something, fport and netstat don't really give me any details as to what is opening them.
Any virii or trojans doing the rounds with these symptoms?

Nothing untoward running after checking hijackthis
Very odd thing, I'm 99% sure something is on here:
msmsgs.exe
ftp.exe
cmd.exe
were repeatedly opening (and I was closing via task manager), solved that problem by renaming them but I'm still not happy.
Installed norton and live update was disabled this morning, something is not right. AVG tells me my definitions are up to date (and has for 3 days) and norton is apparently up to date.
spybot S&D finds nothing
adaware finds nothing to do with the trojan
hijack this comes back clean and registry appears clean
Having a hard time finding this little sod or even what trojan it is. Quite a few have popped up in the last few weeks and narrowing it down is pretty hard
