Propagation
A worm can spread via removable drives. It writes its executable and creates "autorun.inf" scripts on all removable drives. The autorun script will execute the FraudTool's file once a user opens a drive's folder in Windows Explorer.
A worm can spread its copies through the MSN Messanger.
