2. Frantic FILI – WORM_FILI.A (Low Risk)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

WORM_FILI.A is a non-destructive worm that propagates via peer-to-peer

applications by dropping copies of itself in default shared folders. It

also propagates via email and Internet Relay Chat (IRC). It can disable the

Windows Task Manager, thereby preventing an infected user from terminating

its process. It also displays the Windows Shut Down menu (the window

that pops out when CTRL+ALT+DEL keys are pressed) every few seconds to annoy

the user. This worm is currently spreading in-the-wild, and infecting

systems running Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, and XP.

Upon execution, this worm drops a copy of itself in the Windows system

folder as the file PILIF.EXE. It creates a registry entry that allows it

automatically execute at every system startup.

This worm drops copies of itself in the following folders found in the

Program Files directory, which are default-shared folders of popular

peer-to-peer (P2P) applications:

\BearShare\Shared

\BearShare\Shared\

\Edonkey2000\Incoming

\Edonkey2000\Incoming\

\Grokster\My Grokster

\Grokster\My Grokster\

\icq\shared files\

\Kazaa\My Shared Folder

\limewire\Shared

\limewire\Shared\

\Morpheus\My Shared Folder

\Shareaza\downloads

It uses any of the following file names for its dropped copy, followed by

an .EXE, .SCR, .PIF, .BAT, or .CMD extension:

Cracks mega warez collection

Free porn sites accounts

This worm searches for email addresses on .HTM and .HTML files found

on the affected system. It then sends email messages to these addresses

using MAPI. It sends email with the following details:

Message body: (any of the following)

This worm drops a modified SCRIPT.INI file in the following folders:

C:\mirc\

C:\mirc32\

C:\mirc\32

%Program Files%\mirc\

%Program Files%\mirc32\

This modified IRC script sends a copy of the worm to every user who enters

the same chatroom as the infected user. It displays the following

message upon file transfer:

DCA are fighting for free speech. Get their manifesto now!

It then sends out the following file:

Manifesto Anti Censore Pilif.txt.exe

This worm disables the Windows Task Manager to prevent an infected user

from terminating its process. It also displays the Windows Shut Down menu

every few seconds to annoy the user.
