Mail Propagation
The virus copies itself into the Windows System directory as sysformat.exe. For example:
C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\sysformat.exe
It also creates other files in this directory to perform its functions:
C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\sysformat.exeopen
C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\sysformat.exeopenopen
The following Registry key is added to hook system startup:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Run "sysformat" = C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\sysformat.exe
Additionally, the following Registry keys are added:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Params "TimeKey"
It deletes these values
"My AV"
"ICQ Net"
from the following Registry keys, if they are present:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Run
A mutex is created to ensure only one instance of the worm is running at a time. One of the following mutex names is used in an attempt to stop particular variants of W32/Netsky running on the infected machine:
MuXxXxTENYKSDesignedAsTheFollowerOfSkynet-D
_-oO]xX|-S-k-y-N-e-t-|Xx[Oo-_
