I just asked a friend of mine that works with computers, this was his reply when I sent him the info.

Quote from my friend
It's not an April Fools day joke. I had to remove it from a friend's computer last week.

To find out if you have it, do a manual download of the Microsoft security patches or of your virus checker updates, or go to one of the major virus removal software sites. It you can do the downloads or get to the sites, you should be safe. The first thing the virus does is tweak your system so you can't remove it.

A patch came out two Tuesdays ago so hopefully you are safe.
