Poker app steals your logins

When will they ever learn? Poker blogger and self-avowed geek Wil Wheaton has a note about Rakeback calculator, which F-Secure says contains a trojan. Apparently when RBCalc.exe is run, it drops the payload on your machine, which then proceeds to snatch your logins to familiar poker websites. The distributor, Checkraised.com, has disavowed any knowledge, and put up a welcome how-to for removing the suspect payload. Looks like this was the work of a lone coder, but will online poker ever carry the same feeling of comfort and safety ever again? I hope Checkraised is a little more careful in the future...
