Anyone with 0.99.1pre1 installed is advised to check their system
against the list of actions in the "Technical Details" section at

http://securityresponse.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/trojan.zlob.html

I checked the machine that built the 0.99.1pre1 Windows installer, and
items 1 through 5 are NOT present.  I'm not sure how to verify item 6,
and a capture hasn't turned up any of the HTTP connections in item 7
(although it's only been running a few minutes).

So far it looks like a false positive.
