Maybe it removed itself and will be another one soon?

Thank you,

  Update:
      2 days ago, I tried shutting off the Sys/Res again and re-ran the McAfee 
one disc at a time and, for some reason, NONE of them showed a trojan!!!!  
Suddenly, magically, it's gone!!  So I rebooted in Safe Mode and ran EVERYTHING 
test-wise and NOTHING showed up again!!  (A few minor cookie style bugs caught 
by Ad Aware, but not the trojan.)  I booted up again in normal mode and ran 
McAfee AGAIN.  Again, it showed no trojan.  Now, is the trojan gone completely 
(I didn't delete it, I wasn't ever allowed to!), or has it opened up and gone 
through my system, taking itself out of the trojan mode?  The name of the 
trojan was Start Page-DU.DLL, or StartPage-DU.DLL.  If I remember correctly, 
the W32.Bagel worm wasn't deleted by me either, it just vanished one day and 
"became" the Start Page trojan.
