Computer Porn Spyware Worms

Security Experts at MicroWorld Technologies advise computer users to be wary of an email that comes as a zipped file, promising Japanese and Indonesian pornography. The attachment carries a Worm named Win32.VB.co, which infects computers and initiates a mass mailing campaign to email addresses found in the victims address book.

The names of the attachments may be Doc 8328328.zip, file 2151981.zip and Miyabi 5315261.zip, just as these figures are generated aimlessly. The recipients of the dispatch get infected once they download and run the attachment.

This edispatch Worm has got some comment-valuable skin. While carriage dispatchs to the entities found in the address book, it spoofs the victims ID as the remiter ID. Once you remove the file it shows a folder icon, although in truth it is an exe file. The unsuspecting abuser will try to open the imposter folder and will run the exe in the bargain, says Vikas Vishwasrao, junior executive - R&D of MicroWorld Technologies.

What follows is even more interesting! Win32.VB.co proceeds to craft an exe file inside every folder in the computer, with the name of the file being the same as that of the father folder. Here too, the file shows up with a folder icon. The worm then tries to allot by doubling itself into common file allotment applications. It can log keystrokes and remit that to a aloof invader in order to facilitate character Theft, while it also attempts to change off AntiVirus applications.

Other than the edispatch direction, Win32.VB.co can allot via communal folders and P2P applications as well. This will allow this Worm to allot in a large complex inside a span of few hours, forcing lock down of complexs in some suitcases.
