power steering woe

looking for some advice...
About a month ago, my power steering had a bit of leak, so i hastily topped it off with some fluid. Unfortunately, i used the wrong fluid. More specifically, i used brake fluid. I didn't realize at the time, but the next time i went to top it off i realized my idiotic mistake.
Anyway, I have since flushed it out (per Bentley instructions) and replaced it with new PS fluid. But it still doesn't sound/feel good at all. Lots of moaning and rough turning.
Is there anything more I can do? Have I destroyed the power steering system? Or perhaps this is symptomatic of the original leak getting worse.
Advance thanks for any input.
