The Latest Virus Threats


WORM_MYTOB.QF - This memory-resident worm propagates by sending a copy of itself as an attachment to email messages, which it sends to target recipients using its own Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) engine. Thus, it is capable of sending email messages without using mailing applications, such as Microsoft Outlook.

P2KM_EMBED.AC - This Trojan arrives as a file downloaded from the Internet by an unsuspecting user when visiting malicious Web sites. It can also arrive as a file dropped by another malware.
It is a MS Powerpoint Presentation (.PPT) file that uses a Microsoft vulnerability to drop and execute a backdoor, which Trend Micro detects as BKDR_EMBED.AA. The affected system then becomes subjected to the malicious routine of its dropped malware.

PE_POLIP.A - This is Trend Micro's detection of a polymorphic and memory-resident file infector propagating via popular Gnutella-compatible peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, such as BearShare and Gnucleus 2.0.0.6.
It infects .EXE and .SCR files found in the Program Files and Windows system folders, including their subfolders. It also infects the said target files found in folders typically shared by the said P2P applications. Moreover, it terminates certain security-related processes if found running on the infected system. The said routine makes malware detection difficult.
