yeah, that some files are still infected: C:\Program Files\Parallels\Install\090420.16\SiteBuilder4.msi: VBS.Psyme-23 FOUND C:\WINDOWS\Installer\238bc0b.msi: VBS.Psyme-23 FOUND

Best solution is to try and repair your plesk installation from add-remove programs or download a new binary to modify the current installation as there is a chance that the existing ones are affected. PS : Best possible solution is still a reimage if you are badly affected

yeah, it seens that I will need a reimage

try making a plesk backup before u give it away ..will help in restoring the accounts. Safest best is to bring up another server and migrate the accounts to the new server
