Ran it last night and I was clean. I was over on the OpenDNS site, which I use for my DNS service, and they are working with the AV folks and are blocking access to the Command & Control sites that have been identified. I use Norton NIS and got an e-mail from them saying I am protected. I would think that most AV products have protection setup now.

Thanks for that link.

Downloaded, ran it and I'm free and clean.

Apparently some AV programs are alerting to "an unknown file that might harm your computer". Bitdefender is a known AV vendor, and the files are clean. Virus Total reports attached.

Will run the checks on my system later.

It should be pointed out that this tool, in common with many other tools of this type, should be downloaded fresh each time, and only from the vendor's website (or from a site that is accredited to, and linked from, the vendor's website). This is because, as analysis of the targetted malware progresses (and this is an open-ended scenario), the tool itself will, in all likelihood, be rewritten either wholly (or in part) to reflect the new information ascertained through such analysis.
