Looks like whoever is behind this thing is updating it almost constantly. It appears to be getting through almost every real antivirus program right now.

It's a horse race, and it's nose to nose. I sure do hope this asshole runs out of ideas soon!

Wherever I've seen it (and I've seen it a lot) Exploiter was in use extensively.

I have run into this little nasty quite a few times and malwarebytes has killed it every single time with no issues.
