I got that damn thing once when I was doing fantasy baseball research. As far as I know, I wasn't even downloading anything.
I'll tell you this - that !@#$er is clever. It sets your desktop icons to invisible, tells your computer to hide all invisible icons and fires up a bunch of fake processes to slow your computer down. Then it changes your background screen to black through your bios stuff.
It's a genius little bit of malaware and it took me 2 days to figure out how to get rid of the MFer. I mostly just had to keep locating stuff, deleting it, and doing system restores from safe mode until it finally started firing again. I tried so much different crap that I don't even remember exactly what I did to get it.
That thing is just evil.
