Update: now identified by Symantec as backdoor.Hacarmy, but their
virus defs only detect it in the current rapid release set, not the
LiveUpdate or Intelligent Updater files. Those should begin catching
it with the 7/21/04 release.
If you made the mistake of running the script, consult the Symantec
(or other antivirus help system) website for assistance in removing
the trojan that is now permitting remote control of your system.
