   So, I just uninstalled a program called "Intel Customer Improvement Program" that installed without warning on Windows 10. It was bundled with their Driver Support Assistant package, which scans for new drivers for Intel devices.

   I figured I could see if I'd been exposed by this backdoor by using the md5 supplied by netlab.360: find / -type f -exec md5sum {} + | grep '^64f6cfe44ba08b0babdd3904233c4857' Any feedback about using this method?
