They go to your computer secretly, disguised as something else, like the trojans did with the trojan horse, and donwload and install malware(keylogger, hacker stuff, pop-ups, etc.) onto your computer. If your spyware remover detected it and it got succesfully removed, then it shouldn't trouble you.
Trojans, to most, are just a name associated with condoms and bad viruses. In reality they are a new form of bad, when dealing with viruses. These nasties, are disguised as any other type of file, from a file sharing file, to a picture attachment in an email to an Internet pop up urging you to download _______. These programs when run, may do nothing, pop up and error, or actually do what you think they will, while silently contacting their 'master'. Their master may either be a human or another computer. The human can do a number of evil things such as send you more viruses, bomb your hard drive, store his hacker files on your computer, spy on you (not just on the computer, if you have a webcam he may even see you in real life!), find out your credit card number(s) etc. Even if the 'master' is another computer, your computer could turn into a zombie in a massive bot-net, which is basically a mass of computer that a hacker commands to attack a web page by barraging it with strange requests, usually crashing it. Either way, these are some of the most malicious viruses you can find, ergo the harddrive destroyers. So if you find one, get rid of it ASAP.

Hope it helps
Viruses do many different things depending upon what they were programmed to do.
However one thing they ALL do is attempt to transmit themselves to another "host" computer just like a cold virus in the human body.
