Technical Details

It writes the following text to a file with random name and '.txt' extension.

W32.Supernova - Ban religion --------------------------------------------------- Religion = War Religion = Based on fairytales Wars based on fairytales? Ban religion, welcome to the truth ---------------------------------------------------

The worm deletes files from the user's computers, displaying the following messages:

0wned by the blasting star Religion=war Patch the leaks... Or the ship will sink....

It copies itself to the Windows directory under the following names:

Alles-ist-vorbei.exe Desktop-shooting.exe Hello-Kitty.exe BigMac.exe Cheese-Burger.exe Blaargh.exe

And then sets the Registry key "Supernova" under:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]

to point to any of the files.

It runs the following commands, in an attempt to direct a DDoS attack against those hosts.

ping www.islamicity.com -t ping www.christianity.com -t ping www.beliefnet.com -t

These commands won't generate enough traffic to be DDoS attack unless a high number of hosts (on the range of thousands) become infected by this worm.

When trying to spread through MSN it will present the users with the following massages:

Hehe, check this out :-) Funny, check it out (h) LOL!! See this :D LOL!! Check this out :) Hehe, this is fun :-)
