Hello Jeanne,

After a check using google, I don't see any matches on Trojan Vnduo.  I 
do see some for "trojan vundo" however.  For example:

http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2004-112210-3747-99
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/malware-removal/remove-vundo-virtumonde
http://hubpages.com/hub/How-to-remove-Trojan-Vundo-Virus-from-infected-computers

Is the name correct?

Sorry, I haven't had to delete that virus.  But some of the online help 
pages look encouraging, especially Symantec's.

Best of luck,

Scott C.
