Yes, System Restore is quite capable of doing this.  It is a good idea to 
disable System Restore delete any restore points, clean the machine and 
enable it again.

Subject: [access-uk] Trojan horse coming back

Hi all,
A few weeks ago Hannah and I managed to remove a trojan horse from her
Toshiba laptop. Now, despite it being vanished from her laptop, it's
decided to come back again. I am wondering, since she has system restore
enabled, could that have backed up the virus and thus reinfect her
system? She is using AVG Free 7.1 and she has not downloaded anything
recently to cause the trojan to reappear.
Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you.
