I had a user who received an e-mail pretending to be from google updates

The link actually takes them to=20

http://googletoolbar.com.sapo.pt

None of the AV scanners picked this up when downloading the EXE,
perimeter, nor desktop, and even with the latest definitions and scan
engines.

The file is called GoogleToolbarFirefox.exe

I am assuming this is some sort of Trojan or exploit of firefox.

Unfortunately the user ran the file as well, has anyone else out there
seen this or know what this may be ? I have submitted the file for
further testing.
