Attached is a ZIP file called LABEL-ID-NY26032013-GFK73.zip which in turn contains LABEL-ID-NY26032013-GFK73.EXE (note that the date is encoded into the filename, so subsequent versions will change).

VirusTotal detections for this malware are low (7/46). The malware resists analysis from common tools, so I don't have any deeper insight as to what is going on.

Update:  Comodo CAMAS identified some of the phone-home domains which are the same as the ones used here.
