users should take precaution, assuming that there has been a security breach and information has been stolen.
one or more of the identified infections is a backdoor Trojan. If this computer is ever used for on-line banking, I suggest you do the following IMMEDIATELY:

* Call all of your banks, credit card companies, financial institutions and inform them that you may be a victim of identity theft and to put a watch on your accounts or change all your account numbers.
* From a clean computer, change ALL your on-line passwords for email, for banks, financial accounts, PayPal, eBay, on-line companies, any on-line forums or groups you belong to.

Do NOT change passwords or do any transactions while using the infected computer because the attacker will get the new passwords and transaction information. Please refrain from using this computer for online-banking/financial purpose until we give it all clear
