Propagation

A worm spreads 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
   tmp1.tmp.exe:1076
   tmp1.tmp.exe:1332
   a5fa1a27e713f5fd136dc83a1fb09014.exe:1896
   reg.exe:1340
   reg.exe:572
   reg.exe:468
   reg.exe:316
   

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

   %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\skype.exe (3860 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\winlogon (34 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\temp_rYEfcteEDI\winaudt.exe (7547 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\tmp1.tmp.exe (9606 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\jusched.log (347 bytes)

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

   [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
   "wininit.exe" = "%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\tmp1.tmp.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.
