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 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):
   

   wuauclt.exe:344
   7f3a698df30e4534b6a08c2602a5ff2d.exe:440
   rundll32.exe:404
   reg.exe:392
   reg.exe:520
   reg.exe:696
   reg.exe:424
   dumprep.exe:344
   dumprep.exe:548

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\WER3a9e.dir00\appcompat.txt (6760 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\IDM77.exe (35 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\WER3a9e.dir00\manifest.txt (7108 bytes)
   %WinDir%\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\Logs\edb.chk (100 bytes)
   %WinDir%\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\Logs\edb.log (3576 bytes)
   %WinDir%\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\DataStore.edb (100 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\msconfig.exe (35 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\jusched.log (347 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\WER3a9e.dir00\msconfig.exe.hdmp (216743 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\WER3a9e.dir00\msconfig.exe.mdmp (101401 bytes)

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

   [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
   "Windows Live" = "c:\7f3a698df30e4534b6a08c2602a5ff2d.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.
