This Trojan is designed to download other files via the Internet without the knowledge or consent of the user.
The Trojan itself is a Windows PE EXE file, 3072 bytes in size, packed using FSG. The unpacked file is approximately 28KB in size.
Once launched, the Trojan checks to see if %System%\qvxgamet1.exe is present. If not, the Trojan will then delete a file called %Temp%\qvxt1.game (if there is such a file on the victim machine and downloads data from http://**ko.biz/dl.php in its place.
The Trojan then deletes the following files (if they are present on the victim machine):
%Temp%\qvxt2.game %Temp%\qvxt3.game %Temp%\qvxt4.game
It then downloads data from the following URLs in place of these files:
http://**ko.biz/soft/1.exe/ http://**ko.biz/soft/2.exe/ http://**ko.biz/soft/3.exe/
If the download is successful, the Trojan copies the downloaded files to the Windows system directory under the following names:
%System%\qvxgamet2.exe %System%\qvxgamet3.exe %System%\qvxgamet4.exe
If these files already exist, the data in them will be overwritten.
If for some reason the download is not successful, a repeat attempt to download will be made after 5 minutes.
Once the files have been downloaded, they will be launched for execution. The execution of the Trojan program will be terminated.
