Reported 2008 Apr 07 at Bit Defender as Trojan.Downloader.WMA.Wimad.N
Spreading: very low
Not any more. Helped along by P2P users, this one is now spreading fast. When a user attempts to load one of these MP3 and MPG files, which are fake and contain no media clips, they are directed to download a file named PLAY_MP3.exe.
McAfee May 6, 2008 Fake MP3s Running Rampant
Detection of a trojan named Downloader-UA.h was added to the McAfee DAT files several days ago. Since that time more than 360,000 McAfee VirusScan Online users have reported detections, a whopping 32% of those reporting in the past 24 hours alone. Now Downloader-UA.h is not your everyday trojan, this detection covers fake music and video files associated with fastmp3player.com.
Users say they have downloaded this .exe using P2P clients such as Limewire, now why would you want to do that eh?
.exe means executable, no stopping, no pass go.
