Network activity (URLs)

No activity has been detected.

Rootkit activity

No anomalies have been detected.

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 Virus's file once a user opens a drive's folder in Windows Explorer.

Remove it with Ad-Aware

1. Click (here) to download and install Ad-Aware Free Antivirus.
2. Update the definition files.
3. Run a full scan of your computer.

Manual removal*

1. Terminate the original Virus's process (How to End a Process With the Task Manager).
2. Delete the original Virus file.
   
3. Delete or disinfect the following files created/modified by the Virus:
   

   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\IXP000.TMP\Server.exe (2712 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\IXP000.TMP\PALKAZ~1.EXE (81671 bytes)
   %WinDir%\system.ini (70 bytes)
   D:\ebqg.exe (103 bytes)
   D:\disablejavawarnsec.exe (1176 bytes)
   %Program Files%\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\Reader_sl.exe (1336 bytes)
   D:\autorun.inf (236 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\winerdas.exe (741 bytes)
   C:\bjigp.exe (103 bytes)
   C:\autorun.inf (346 bytes)
   %Program Files%\Common Files\Java\Java Update\jusched.exe (368 bytes)

4. Delete the following value(s) in the autorun key (How to Work with System Registry):
   

   [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce]
   "wextract_cleanup0" = "rundll32.exe %System%\advpack.dll,DelNodeRunDLL32 C:\DOCUME~1\"%CurrentUserName%"\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP000.TMP\"

5. Find and delete all copies of the worm's file together with "autorun.inf" scripts on removable drives.
   
6. Reboot the computer.
   

*Manual removal may cause unexpected system behaviour and should be performed at your own risk.
