thats true, I remember having something like the a strain though (with a fake windows saying you need to buy some software) all it did was annoy me and slow down my computer but of course this could be worse.

You'll probably find that it disabled your firewall too and downloaded a bunch of other virii/trojans

I cleaned another two machines this week.

1 was infected by browsing an infected site (a personal site that was infected by having it's owner account bruteforced)

the other was infected by opening an infected .pdf readme in a torrent.
