The MSRC blog posting seems to suggest that Gimmiv.A was how this
bug was detected in the wild in the first place.

        "We have also have detection for the malware we found used
        in attacks exploiting this vulnerability (TrojanSpy:Win32/Gimmiv.A
        and TrojanSpy:Win32/Gimmiv.A.dll) in the signatures the MMPC is
        releasing today and sharing that information with our partners."
