Saw this malware the other day for the first time. VERY evil. Not your ordinary fake virus scanner pop-up malware that is easily removed.

Rogue Killer removed it BUT you had to let it scan to completion then kill off all DLLHost instances via Process Explorer BEFORE you hit the DELETE button in Rogue Killer and then reboot immediately.
