Any good firewall software, or hardware, will prevent the communication that this type of trojan tries to do. You still need antivirus software, or to practice safe computing, to prevent them from being installed in the first place though.
I personally use a US Robotics router with a built in firewall, and update the firmware regularly. I don't use antivirus software, but I am the only user for any of the computers on my network, and am very selective about what I download.
BTW, kudos to you Cairenn, or whoever it was that spotted it first and reported it to the place that was hosting it. I noticed they killed the pages for "Violations of terms of service" almost imediatly. =)
