Cool! Your computer now contains:
CyDoor adware
dlder.exe - an advertising trojan. This one creates a fake Explorer executable and process to hide its activities.
bdeviewer.exe - an ad plugin that also sells your hard drive space, processing power and bandwidth.
ctbclick.exe - It connects to the web site "yourspecialoffers.com" and, when directed to do so by the command files stored on that site, adds entries to the IE Favorites menu, and installs other software - at the time of writing, it has been known to have installed the additional parasites VX2, NetPal and ClickTheButton, as well as a homepage-hijacker that makes your browser start at www.ezcybersearch.com.
Ezula - It inserts "yellow highlighter" advertising links in arbitrary web sites you visit.

Reasons why I never use kazaa... winmx all the way.
