I've not been affected, but a friend of mine has. Anyone here see/experienced this? Nothing I've seen so far says the corrupted files can be fixed.

727883 2008-12-11 09:35:00 Hmm looks nasty. One site says it maybe a file called 43718D7A.exe

Kill its process then delete it. Find the entries for it, in the registry, then delete them

Youre right, noone seems to know where it came from or what it is. Or how to get the documents back

It could be an exploit in Office / Windows, that someone has found and is using
