Just downloaded it -- badness is confirmed
Authored by: jeffiel on May 12, '04 09:58:37PM

I haven't done the search for the file, but wouldn't the file size of an 8 byte script with a little bitmap be a tip-off that it isn't the bloatware of M$FT office applications?

Or is the trojan padded with a few dozen megs of junk?

Initially i would totally agree with you. But as someone else has mentioned before, it was claimed to be a web installer, which itself is small but downloads the files it needs over the web.
