if it was a merc job it looks like its a shotgun attempt to erase such files from computers.

interesting tactic. seems if this trojan was funded by anyone in the recording industry they might have paid more for a more focused piece of software.

anyone using a default download path or common download program deserves this.

same goes for people that don't organize what they download outside of the download directory as soon as it is complete

And I can't wait to see what happens with this if they ever find who programmed it. Should be pretty interesting.
