F-Secure Virus Descriptions : Cervivec
Cervivec is a mass-mailer worm written in Delphi. The code body
is over 600 kilobytes in size. It collects e-mail addresses
from the user's ICQ contact database.
The worm installs itself to the Windows System directory as
"ntkrnl.exe" and adds a value to the registry to
"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\Kernel Loader"
to make sure that it will be started when the machine starts up.
It sends e-mail messages in different languages:
"Cau posilam ti cerviky tak se na to podivej (virus to neni)"
"Cau posielam ti cerviky tak sa na to pozri (virus to neni)"
"Hallo, Ich habe ein guter Witz-Wurm so sieh! (kein virus)"
"Hi, I have some cool joke - worms so have a look at it (no virus)"
"J'ai une bonne blague ca s'appelle verre de terre alors jette un coup d'oeil (il n'y a pas de virusi)"
"Czesc, mam swietnz dowci te mando los gusanilloes. Pues mirarlos (no es un virus)"
"Hola te mando los gusanilloes. Puesmirarlos (no es un virus)"
F-Secure Anti-Virus with the latest updates can detect this worm.
