Good idea...
No-one has reported the virus going any further than their download folder, once this virus is cleaned up, they can re-download and all new files are fine...

Files are 408.0 KB & are .mp3.exe (with the exe icon). AntiVir found WORM/Fontra.C during download, which is the same as the Delf.ATB worm that Aaron suggested months ago.
Worm/Fontra.C - Full description

One person also downloaded a Bitdownloader file & got hit with this worm.

These ones show up in my search as "song title Bitdownloader", again with the exe icon. The ones I found were 220.5 KB. Antivir ignored them, AVG Antispyware found Trojan.Obfuscated.en.


There are some other really nasty little .mp3.exes of 228.0 KB & these show up with TR/Drop.VB.ME.1, TR/Drop.VB.ME.20. Can't find too much info about these but they seem to be much harder to get rid of than the worm.

hmmm....interested in writing a nice little sticky about this subject birdy?, you seem quite up on the subject!

*cough*cough*hack*hack* I guess I've missed out on this experience (as I'm sure others have for the same reason) because I know not to even think about downloading such obviously "wrong" files...I do have some dim memory about seeing something similar coming back as a search result, but that is possibly a false memory...reminds me of the infamous Wavelab5 crack (which was floating around when Wavelab4 had just been released) that was floating around for a time....

It's a bit amazing how so many people do manage to download these, since they have the program icon & LW gives you the warning popup when you try to download an exe file.
