I have informed our Administrator, Lee Koo.
My computer is a Dell Dimension 4600 with Win XP Home 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 Build 2600. It has been running normally. I have Panda Internet Security 2008 12.00.01 installed and running.
This morning I downloaded IZArc_Setup.exe from http://www.download.com/3001-2250_4-10826781.html?idl=n (at least, that is the link that I get now when I start the download process.)
I then installed and ran the program. After about a minute in the program my desktop background changed to white with a warning "window" in the center warning of infection. Nothing in the "window" was clickable.
Panda gave a message that it was restoring something (I do not rememeber the name) that it had mistakenly quarantined. There were no other warnings or messages from Panda. Neither Panda's full scan nor Total Scan Pro found any problems.
I installed Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and it removed all the problems. Below is the relevent portions of the log. I also have a jpg of my infected desktop.
At this time, I believe that the infection was from IZArc_Setup.exe but Panda sees no problem with it.
