Remove Crutle. Description and removal instructions

Title: Crutle
Type: Worms	Severity scale: (45 / 100)

Crutle is a worm that spreads through file sharing networks using popular Kazaa software. Once executed, the parasite silently installs itself to the system, creates a folder and numerous infected files with meaningful names. Then it shares a new folder using the Kazaa program, making it accessible to other peer-to-peer clients. Crutle doesn't carry any destructive payload, as it is designed only to spread. The worm automatically runs on every Windows startup.
