I scanned my system for spyware before, and after I reformatted my hard drive. It found some spyware on my system that was there before I reformatted my hard drive.
It can also stay on other partitions if you have the harddrive setup that way which is more likely what happened.
Did you do an inplace install of XP or a full re-format? Full re-format is when you boot off the XP disc and format the HD (not the quick format option) and then reinstall Windows.
Use DBAN, then it can't. DBAN mean's Derik's Boot and Nuke. It wipes the driver clean. ;) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darik's_Boot_and_Nuke (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darik's_Boot_and_Nuke)
