 Hi,
 I am sorry if I would sound silly, but isn't this URL for windowsupdate??
 Which is normal to change the name of the exe file according to the state
of
 the windows being patched.
 For me it is not a virus, in fact not doing this ( updating Windows) is the
 real threat you are facing.
 Regards,
 Kareem
