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.
A program can register a device notification with the help of RegisterDeviceNotification. So it is notified when a USB device is plugged and then the worm copies itself to the USB device plugged into the affected computer.
A worm can spread its copies through the MSN Messanger.

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. Scan a system with an anti-rootkit tool.
   
2. Terminate malicious process(es) (How to End a Process With the Task Manager):
   

   %original file name%.exe:1704
   %original file name%.exe:828
   gxrlucgttfc.exe:1640
   gxrlucgttfc.exe:480
   lqcnmzfteix.exe:916
   nwrddbzxfpa.exe:1776
   nwrddbzxfpa.exe:1784
   

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

   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\My Documents\My Videos\Desktop.ini (312 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\c731200 (9 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\All Users\explorer.exe (601 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\c731200 (673 bytes)

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

   [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
   "Start WingMan Profiler" = "%Documents and Settings%\All Users\explorer.exe"
   
   [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
   "Uukmkg" = "%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\Identities\Uukmkg.exe"
   
   

6. Clean the Temporary Internet Files folder, which may contain infected files (How to clean Temporary Internet Files folder).
   
7. Find and delete all copies of the worm's file together with "autorun.inf" scripts on removable drives.
   
8. Reboot the computer.
   

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