This process started making pop-up windows in my browser. I also found that it created a trojan virus and a keylogger, when I looked around in my files.
I strongly recommend uninstalling BitTorrent and ending BTDNA.exe with procexp.exe. I didn't do this, and took the easy route,and re-installed Windows XP.

Installed "BitTorrent" package along with the "DNA" package.
Uninstalled the package because I no longer need it, but it keeps re-installing. Further, whatever has taken over my system removes MicroTrend's malware protection every time I reboot.
Read "http://torrentfreak.com/bittorrent-dna-vulnerable-to-remote-hijack-080103/". While the btdna.exe is probably not the virus/trojan itself, it appears to be a major attack vector or is used by the attacking code to move large portions of data around.

While in its self its not dangerous it is vulnerable to hijack by websites and allows them to download files onto a computer without a users consent namely viruses Trojans worms and other forms of malware

Could you tell me why btdna.exe is talking to all sorts of other machines on port 34905 when no terrabit streaming is needed. i.e. no one is playing any games. And why port 34905 is not registered
