Default Trojan Horse in the WCP reveals secrets thread?

I opened a link in the World Class Player reveals secrets thread earlier (simply marked "LINK") and just finished mopping up a trojan horse that resulted (I hope). I see that Mike has now edited the posts to remove the link so i presume this affected other people as well (for those of you who didn't pick it up it seemed to happen after you clicked the link that led (appropriately) to "You are an idiot". So this post is just a warning to nayone who may have opened the link and whose Anti virus software didn't pick it up and a request for some help myself:

1. Did this happen anyone else?
2. For the more computer savvy out there, was it enough to delete the two entries in the documents and settings folder that were infected and delete all Temporary Internet Files?
3. What did this do? Should i be fixing anything else or changing passwords etc?

Thanks for any help

Mackas

Hover your mouse over the link and see where the link goes before clicking it.
