Technical Details

This Trojan has a malicious payload. It is a Windows PE EXE file. It is 24 576 bytes in size. It is written in C++.

Installation

When launched, the Trojan copies its executable file to the Windows system directory under the original file name.

%System%\<original name of Trojan file>

In order to ensure that the Trojan is launched automatically each time the system is booted, it registers its executable file in the system registry:

[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"wins" = "%System%\<original name of Trojan file> "

Payload

Every 55 minutes, the Trojan uses Internet Explorer to open one of the following links:

http://bbsdown.cn/aabb.html
http://552779.cn/aabb.html

  1. Use Task Manager to terminate the Trojan process.
  2. Delete the original Trojan file (the location will depend on how the program originally penetrated the victim machine).

Trojan

This type of behaviour covers malicious programs that delete, block, modify, or copy data, disrupt computer or network performance, but which cannot be classified under any of the behaviours identified above.

This classification also covers “multipurpose” Trojan programs, i.e. those that are capable of conducting several actions at once and which demonstrate several Trojan behaviours in a single program. This means they cannot be indisputably classified as having any single behaviour.
