Technical Details

Payload

If the Trojan opens an infected web-page in the MS Internet Explorer, it decrypts its obfuscated body using Java Script and downloads a file from the following URL using the ActiveX object "Microsoft.XMLHTTP"

http://91.***.162.99/sd.exe

The URL did not respond when the description was created.
