[Post on : September 29, 2007 18:14 | Category : Bot & Botnets | by : smallmo] Reship : Original

MSN worm variant still keeps updating everyday.

We got a new one today. The filename is "imageXX.zip" (XX is random digitals, such as image41.zip). In the .zip file, it's include a .com file "imageXX.JPG-www.photosmart.com" (XX is random digitals, such as image41.JPG-www.photosmart.com). Be careful of these files.

The screenshot of this variant when sending .zip files to MSN contact list:

Right, for people currently experiencing this issue with the new version of the virus, the registry entry is called zytyvouz. After deleting and restarting, the files you remove are named mazittebub.exe and bynoussus.exe (Both located in the Windows System 32 folder). Good luck!!

Yep ack, that is most likely a varient.

For those of you who dont understand this or are having problems go to http://www.msnvirusremoval.com

The viruses arent [i]just[/i] adding keys to the Run folder anymore, its more complicated then that.

I found a file 'e.exe' in the Run directory on a friends computer which is also sending out these 'Image.zip' files. So yeah, anything with a suspicious filename is suspicious. ;)
