gspotbot.exe trojan

[a_person]

Anyone ever heard of the gspotbot.exe trojan, i discovered this file on my system and it looked like a trojan. I did some reasearch on the internet and i found that it compromises security settings. I'm not sure how i got this. I certainly didn't download a file with gspot in the name lol! So if you can tell me how you think I got this I would be greatful.
