Remove Exponny. Description and removal instructions

Title: Exponny
Type: Trojans	Severity scale: (59 / 100)

Exponny is a trojan that uses the Winny file sharing program to share and expose all the files stored on the infected computer's hard drives. Once executed, the parasite displays a fake message in Japanese and installs itself to the system. Then it changes Winny settings in order to share all hard drives with users of the Winny file sharing network. As a result, unauthorized persons can get full access to the victim's confidential information. Exponny runs on every Windows startup.
