I've heard from some folks on other forums that some addons from Curse Gaming were infected with trojans over the weekend; most notably, KTM. I grabbed it last Thursday and seem to be fine so apparently it was later on in the weekend.
100% of the addons I've downloaded are simply unzipped to the WoW\Interface\Addons folder. If you find one that has an executable file (*.exe), I would avoid it or scan it VERY thoroughly.
A lot of the Internet Explorer vulnerabilities are patched by Microsoft fairly quickly, so Windows users should check Windows Update regularly if Automatic Updates is not turned on.
