Your notes indicate you had trouble removing some registry entries. I'd suggest running PSExec from Sysinternals. It's free and comes with source from www.sysinternals.com, and the command would be something like:
psexec /s /i /d c:\path\to\regedt32.exeIf you can't edit or delete those keys this way, I don't know of another tool that will let you without resorting to an offline registry editor.
We found what seems to be a unknown rootkit on a customer system which was windows 2000 sp4. It is a kernel resident infector as it installs itself as hidden device driver operating in kernel level to hide its directories and programs aswell as network connections. For our research we named it Win32/McSport-A.More Detailed informations aswell as removal instructions can be found here: http://www.groundzero-security.com/mcsport.html
