Description:
This UPX-compressed, mass-mailing worm uses Microsoft Outlook and Visual
Basic Script (VBS) to propagate copies of itself via email. It originates
from a malicious Web site that prompts a visiting user to download and
execute its file, which is a malicious executable that displays a hoax
message.

Upon execution, it creates an auto run key in the registry, drops other
files, and copies itself into the System directory. Thereafter, it stays in
memory and sends advertising messages to to users connected to the same
Internet Relay Chat (IRC) channel as its infected user.
