According to this Symantec write-up, it doesn't look particularly hard
to remove. Are you doing your scanning in Safe Mode?

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/trojan.zlob.b.html

You didn't mention what antivirus you have installed (if any) or how you
know you have this trojan. Start by scanning with either Sysclean or
Dave Lipman's Multi-AV:

http://www.ik-cs.com/multi-av.htm - how to use Dave Lipman's Multi-AV
http://www.ik-cs.com/programs/virtools/Multi_AV.exe - Multi-AV download

Follow the directions exactly. After the initial scanning with one of
these tools, get and install a full-featured av, update it, and do a
thorough scan in Safe Mode. Then continue with non-viral malware
scanning:

Follow the steps systematically, doing everything in Safe Mode with
updated tools.
