It doesn't "spread". Its a trojan, not a virus. "Infection" requires you to manually run a (most likely renamed) copy of the program someone sends you or that you download from newsgroups/kazaa/whatever.

That's why the threat containment rating is marked "Easy."
And why hasn't it become a general corporate policy to actually hold dumba$$ repeat offenders accountable??!!

I've had a VP launch the "see Anna naked" stuff as well as several others. So glad they cash a 6-digit paychecks while I waste my time cleaning up their laptop because they can't recognize an obvious virus/worm. :disgust: If they are so stupid to execute those files what does that say for their management skills?

LOL, you are right. Whoever wrote this wanted to fvck up computers! 😀
