and removal

The trojan does not spread by itself.  It is likely that it has been manually distributed in fora where people would download and run it - f.ex. in file sharing networks.

File system changes:

\\TEMP\\childporn.wmv.      
\\win32.exe.      
\\msits.exe.      
\\cmd32.exe
loadadv713.exe. 
\\kernels64.exe                                

The files installed are:

win32.exe, kernels64.exe : Installers for Tibs, BraveSentry and other malware. Tibs is a downloader for pornographic adware, BraveSentry is a scam-based "AntiSpyware" utility.
msits.exe, cmd32.exe : Downloads SpySheriff and other downloaders. SpySheriff is another scam-based "AntiSpyware" utility.
loadadv713.exe : Another downloader

This is a quite common scenario - downloaders that download more downloaders which download more downloaders - it goes on and on.
