|
February 13, 2001 CommuniLink.Net has received over 1000 reports of VBS/SST-A virus worm from all the mail servers in this morning.
"The virus lures users into activating it by pretending to be a jpeg graphic of Russian tennis player Anna Kournikova.
The first time the attached file is executed it will write a copy of itself to the user's Windows directory. The worm will
then attempt to send a copy of itself to every entry in the user's Outlook address book.
The worm makes changes to the Registry, creating an entry called HKCU\software\OnTheFly.
On the 26th of January the worm attempts to connect to a website in the Netherlands, www.dynabyte.nl" ---- Sohpos
