Description
W32/Bugbear-F is a worm which spreads via email. The subject line and
attached file of the email sent by the worm are variable and may be taken
from information on the infected computer. The attached file has an
extension of ZIP.
W32/Bugbear-F creates a copy of itself with a randomly generated name in the
Windows system folder. To ensure that the copy of the worm is run each time
Windows is started the worm adds a randomly named value to the registry key
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
The worm creates several other files with random names in the Windows system
folder. One of the files is a DLL used to monitor the user's keystrokes.
