I inadvertently downloaded a similar thing disguised as a hallmark card. The stupid thing is that it didn't get me to the website - but instead asked me to download a file - I stupidly downloaded it.

It shows up as a program in my program list - but when I try to Add/Remove - it won't delete all the files.

I run Norton 360 I'm having it do a scan now - do you think that will get at it?
