This makes me veerryy annoyed at BT, as my computer contains the Aurora.exe program.

Any internet user downloading a movie clip only becomes aware of the associated adware after the download has been complted. At that stage, when you click on "Run" (for some reason), you are greeted by an installation notice for an adware bundle distributed by MMG [blah blah blah].
