And this is what McAfee has to say about that Trojan code:

This is a mass-mailing worm with the following characteristics:

contains its own SMTP engine to construct outgoing messages
harvests email addresses from the victim machine
the From: address of messages is spoofed
attachment can be a password-protected zip file, with the password included in the message body.
contains a remote access component (notification is sent to hacker)
copies itself to folders that have the phrase shar in the name (such as common peer-to-peer applications; KaZaa, Bearshare, Limewire, etc)
uses various mutex names selected from those W32/Netsky variants have used, in order to prevent those W32/Netsky variants running on infected machines
terminates processes of security programs and other worms
deletes registry entries of security programs and other worms
Just curious if you have scanned your PC for spyware with something like spybot or adaware?
