At my work place TortoiseSVN get installed by the IT guys, since we are
not allowed to do it ourselves due to risk of at same time installing
viruses when browsing for things on Internet having the needed Admin
privilegies needed to do an install in a closed environment.
I tend to think that you have had something stored from places
elsewhere which contained viruses or alike, and that when getting the
needed privilegies as temporary admin, your tortoisesvn installation has
been infected by that virus that has just waited for the opportunity to
infect.
Where you have gotten that virus I have no idea, but maybe a home page
you have visited same day (after booting computer)
