Trojan:W32/MonaGray is the first component of a scam designed to trick victims into purchasing a rogue product. The trojan infects with the intent of drawing attention to itself.
It displays the follow message from the System Tray:
MonaGray.A also sets Internet Explorer's title bar to "MonaRonaDona" and disables the system's Task Manager.
Its primary purpose is to direct the victim to search for the term MonaRonaDona.
Search engines directed to prepared results promoting "Unigray Antivirus".
Example from Digg.com:
The only designed purpose of "Unigray Antivirus" is to remove the MonaGray trojan.
The rogue product sold for $39.90.
As of March 13, 2008 the Unigray website is unavailable and search engine results for "MonaRonaDona" result in legitimate warnings rather than the rogue's prepared promotions.
