I feel like such an idiot. Anyway, the above program has been promoted in bitcoin chat rooms/channels and some websites. If you downloaded it assume you have a remote backdoor and keylogger on your system. Remove it with Anti-Malware program.

On windows 7 it creates many msdcsc.exe processes and is difficult to remove. They don't appear for a few days to stop arousing suspicion, and only appear after you have done a reboot.

A full virus scan, anti-malware scan is recommended. I haven't lost any bitcoin because my private keys are on an offline linux machine, but I'm going to change all my bitcoin related passwords and reinstall my system. PITA.

Did I mention I feel like an idiot? I'm usually very careful with these kinds of things.
