This leads to a page on a botnet (with a tantalising picture) which prompts you to download Adobe_Player11.exe which is a nasty rootkit, rather than a media player.



VirusTotal reports a very low detection rate, ThreatExpert's prognosis is that this is something you REALLY don't want to have to clean up.. possibly a recover / reformat / reinstall job. Once installed, the trojan calls back to 58.65.232.17 which is Hostfresh in Hong Kong who are well known as suppliers of services to criminals.
