A software firewall is useful here - since it shows a warning whenever something tries to connect to the internet, it makes it pretty obvious if theres something malicious in your system. Although I have heard tell of trojans that can actualy send a mouseclick signal to the OS, fooling the firewall into thinking the trojan has been granted internet access when all the user saw was a flicker, if that.
