this,

No, it will only come back *if* he restores the system to a point where
the Trojan is
present.
I have learned that it is *BEST* to leave the system Restore cache as is
until the PC is
thoroughly cleaned of malware. Then once that is deemed to be clean,
disable the System
Restore cache and reboot the PC. Then re-enable the System Restore cache
and then create a
new restore point.
The reason you don't want to dump the System Restore cache PRIOR to
cleaning the PC is if
the cleaning process kills the PC and it no longer works correctly. Then
you can restore
the PC to a state prior to cleaning process and then you can proceeed the
cleaning process
again but differently. It is better to have a PC that has malware that
works then a PC that
doesn't work at all.
