3. Symantec has already updated their database for this..

if you use IE and are worried, use the Search function and search your C drive for *My.hta
Include the asterisk in the search.

Or if you like fiddling with the registry, look for:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

And see if

"uwyrl" = "%System%\uwyrl.exe"

is in the right pane. Delete it if it is.

Symantec says the distribution of the trojan is low and that all it appears to do is degrade your computer's performance.Here's their link:
