Just to give a heads up, I updated Pest Patrol tonight, ran a scan, and found something disturbing in the codecs for Real Audio and Quicktime. Until a few days ago, I had always opted not to install these. Here are the logs:

Here is the description of the RAT: http://pestpatrol.com/zks/pestinfo/m/mc_30_day.asp
It's quite possible something else came along, picked those 2 files out of the millions on my PC, and hid the trojans there, but that would be pretty low on the probability scale.
Anyhow, knowledge is power
