can’t post on the “how to remove “macaccess” trojan” post. when I press submit comment, the page it takes me to just says “discard” in the upper left hand corner of the screen. I’ve posted my situation below, if you could help i’d be very grateful

downloaded it at:
http://booksinprint.osa.pl/db3/edition-with-guide-john1.html

Downloaded it when looking for an ebook. Knew something was wrong when nothing showed up in the applications folder. Did some quick research and came across a story on macworld about deleting trojans. I ran the sudo crontab -l command in terminal and got the following response:
Library/Internet Plug-Ins/plugins.settings”>/dev/null 2>&1
I then ran sudo crontab -r and since then have been getting the response “crontab: no crontab for root” when I run sudo crontab -l.
I turned my computer off for the night and the next time I logged in, I could not connect to the internet. I used my wife’s computer to look for more information and came across this site. After reading this article, I deleted the mozilla and adobe plugins (could not find the i386 or cron files) and downloaded a trial of virusbarrier and moved it over to my computer. Afte r scanning my computer, virusbarrier found the packages in the receipts folder. I deleted the entire “install.pkg” in the receipts folder. I have checked my settings in system preferences and terminal (using scutil and then the command “show State:/Network/Global/DNS”) and never found any foreign DNS servers. Despite all this, I am unable to connect to the internet. I can see my network in Airport, but when I run diagnostics, it says the problem is in Network Settings. The settings are exactly the same as my wife’s computer, save for the fact that in the Advanced menu under the TCP/IP tab, my computer does not specify the router. Could this be the problem, or is the malware still affecting me somehow? I have since run virusbarrier and it is not detecting any problems. let me know if I need to clarify anything.
