Exclamation Virus TROJAN

Several weeks ago I noticed a trojan posted as an mp3 while downloading
I thought up a way to post a warning by creating a folder & adding it to my mp3 list. Then using a French translator posting a warning to French speakers that an Amel Bent file was infected. (a while later I noticed you posted a notice about someone had found a way to post a message to Limewire users it may have been me) I have since noticed this Trojan file posted more frequently. It takes this form > (file name) mp3 3,462 T3 or Higher
It seems to have replaced the annoying porn file at the top of every search. Can you do anything about it I know from family & friends just how lazy most people are with PC security there are probably thousands of PC's infected by now.
Since posting this the virus has become more widespread and is now in .wma files as well. All users should use caution & have a good Anti Virus installed
I use Bitdefender 2008 catches pretty much anything thrown at it. Has blocked all infected files so far.
The file size remains the same 3,462 regardless of it's type mp3 or wma
It seems to be related to the porn file a search bringing up an infected file adds the search name to the porn file.
