Backdoor:Win32/IRCbot.gen!K is a generic detection for a family of IRC-controlled backdoor trojans. These may perform certain activities when commanded to do so by a remote attacker, such as downloading and executing arbitrary files and collecting system information.

Take the following steps to help prevent infection on your system:
• Enable a firewall on your computer.
• Get the latest computer updates for all your installed software.
• Use up-to-date antivirus software.
• Use caution when opening attachments and accepting file transfers.
• Use caution when clicking on links to Web pages.
• Avoid downloading pirated software.
• Protect yourself against social engineering attacks.
• Use strong passwords.
Manual removal is not recommended for this threat. Use Microsoft Security Essentials or another up-to-date scanning and removal tool to detect and remove this threat and other unwanted software from your computer. For more information on Microsoft security products, see http://www.microsoft.com/protect/products/computer/default.mspx.
