Summary:

Worm. A program that is primarily replicating on networks or removable drives.

Payload

Behaviour Description
WormAutorun 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 Worm's file once a user opens a drive's folder in Windows Explorer.


Process activity

The Worm creates the following process(es):

reg.exe:1076
reg.exe:448
reg.exe:948
reg.exe:1232

The Worm injects its code into the following process(es):

%original file name%.exe:1492
vbc.exe:1992
rundll32.exe:1980

File activity

The process %original file name%.exe:1492 makes changes in the file system.
The Worm creates and/or writes to the following file(s):

%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\sexy_girl_shows_her_naked_body_1.jpg (51 bytes)
%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\Windows Update\Windows Update.exe (5441 bytes)

The process vbc.exe:1992 makes changes in the file system.
The Worm creates and/or writes to the following file(s):

%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\Windows (33 bytes)
%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\local.exe (3860 bytes)

Registry activity

The process %original file name%.exe:1492 makes changes in the system registry.
The Worm creates and/or sets the following values in system registry:

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 Worm'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 malicious process(es) (How to End a Process With the Task Manager):

    reg.exe:1076
    reg.exe:448
    reg.exe:948
    reg.exe:1232

  2. Delete the original Worm file.
  3. Delete or disinfect the following files created/modified by the Worm:

    %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\sexy_girl_shows_her_naked_body_1.jpg (51 bytes)
    %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\Windows Update\Windows Update.exe (5441 bytes)
    %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\Windows (33 bytes)
    %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\local.exe (3860 bytes)

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

    [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
    "Windows Update" = "%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\Windows Update\Windows Update.exe"

  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.
