"One example of such malware is WinTools, which has been around since
2004 and installs a toolbar, along with three separate components, on
infected systems. Attempts to remove any part of the malware cause the
other parts to simply replace the deleted files and restart them. The
fragmented nature of such code makes it harder to write removal scripts
and to know whether all malicious code has actually been cleaned off a
computer."
