Netsky.D: red alert
Isabelle Hontebeyrie
Panda ActiveScan reports that Netsky.D is infecting computers worldwide.
According to Panda Software, "Netsky.D spreads via e-mail by sending itself out to all the address it finds in files with the following extensions on the affected computer: .eml, .txt, .php, .pl, .htm, .html, .vbs, .rtf, .uin, .asp, .wab, .doc, .adb, .tbb, .dbx, .sht, .oft, .msg, .shtm, .cgi, and .dhtm. It does this using its own SMTP engine."
Moreover, Netsky.D deletes the Registry entries created by certain worms, including Mydoom.A and Mimail.T. This worm has also been designed to emit several random beeping sounds between 6:00 and 8:59 when the system date is March 2, 2004.
Free tools are available on Panda Software.
