You might enjoy reading this if you downloaded the ASUS live update.

There is a patch to see if you were perhaps hit by the backdoor pwning.

I own 3 Asus motherboards and never heard of "Asus Live Update."  I have a program called "Asus AI Suite" that includes a function for checking for BIOS updates, but, it's primary function is to overckock the CPU from within Windows.

New update of how to fix, if you had one of the wondrous pre-Pwned Asus computers.

 

Following the second link will lead you to another link with instructions on the fix.
