The Trojan is encapsulated in the file setup.exe, which would mean that when you run the installer of Windows 7 ,then it will install Windows 7 along with Trojan.Neowin forum reported this issue and gives information about how to install windows 7 without the Trojan.
It is advised to check MD5 of the ISO file before Installing windows 7,the correct MD5 would “8867C13330F56A93944BCD46DCD73590″ for x86 version and “98341af35655137966e382c4feaa282” for x64 version
