Thanks for the heads up, although the name on that link might scare someone.

Interesting. I hardly ever use the actual Steam client for anything, using real browsers instead, but this could be dangerous to others and it sets a scary precedent. I wonder if Valve will try to implement counter-measures within their client in the future.

Sneaky, a malware from 2013
If you have installed that skin, check this file locations if you are infected: http://greatis.com/cleanvirus/trojan/trojan-win32-autoit-bnw.htm

Air for Steam is, for what I know, a harmless skin that users can add to their official Steam client. It's delivered from its official website as a ZIP file that contains data to unpack in your Steam folder. It works for Linux, Mac, and Windows with the same files.
I've noticed a user on Steam forums this morning, that posts the same thing on numerous games forums with the same kind of message: he's going to make a free raffle for [insert game name here] in a few hours, in the meantime readers are invited to try "his" skin... Followed by a link to a .net (not .com) site which is a fake. It's a copy of the legit one, except that the installation file is a malicious EXE. Virustotal report can be seen here: https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/ec5d1ed4ab6501e73c4e1ddad7d602c26d623a8af80da31fe9b084fb2ab38414/analysis/
Skilled users will not fall into this, but some here can find this warning useful.
Also, here's the mandatory giveaway: www.LamerzHideout.com/warez/malicious_files/evilTrojan.exe
