From: "Antti Kurenniemi" 

We've had similar stuff at the office on two computers, and both had an app
named "finland_sex.exe" in quite a few folders. Neither of the
users admitted to have visited adult entertainment sites, but I have my
doubts

(if you find the same file, look also in the registry - it was in several
places there, too)
