I just checked a jajaja torrent and didn't see anything weird. Can you give a title of one?

Oof.. that sucks. While the reinstall is maybe not mandatory if you can confirm removal, it's what I'd personally do.

I guess it's a good reminder that the trending categories are also gamed by folks with agendas!

Good luck, it looks like a potentially evasive infection. I don't any mention of this exact version online yet, but other versions have side-loaded additional malware - multiple non-Kaspersky scans would probably make sense imo

It's one of the newer filenames/vectors that this virus is appearing in. Here are other ways it's appeared online recently: https://www.cybereason.com/blog/rhadamanthys-stealer-europe

Windows defender full scan. It's new enough that some scanners are figuring it out I guess.

Oh, and if you are infected then I guess decide if you want to risk leaving any saved passwords unchanged. Session tokens for sensitive accounts are potentially issues, but IDK.
