Top 10 malware reported to Sophos in June 2004

W32/Zafi-B is a peer-to-peer (P2P) and email worm that will copy itself to the Windows system folder as a randomly named EXE file.

This worm will test for the presence of an internet connection by attempting to connect to www.google.com or www.microsoft.com.

W32/Zafi-B collects email addresses from files which have the following extensions:

HTM, WAB, TXT, DBX, TBB, ASP, PHP, SHT, ADB, MBX, EML and PMR.

The worm stores the collected email addresses in randomly named files with a
DLL extension in the Windows system folder.

W32/Zafi-B attempts to include itself as an attachment in email messages sent to addresses collected from the local machine. The worm will also copy itself into shared P2P folders as either 'WINAMP 7.0 FULL_INSTALL.EXE' or
'TOTAL COMMANDER 7.0 FULL_INSTALL.EXE'.

W32/Zafi-B may display a message box on screen containing the following Hungarian text:

A hajlektalanok elhelyezeset, a bunteto torvenyek szigoritasat, es a HALALBUNTETES MEGSZAVAZASAT koveteljuk a kormanytol, a novekvo bunozes ellen! 2004, jun, Pecs,(SNAF Team).

The English translation is:

We demand that the government accomodates the homeless,
tightens up the penal code and VOTES FOR THE DEATH PENALTY
to cut down the increasing crime. Jun. 2004, Pécs (SNAF Team)

Below are examples of the emails sent by W32/Zafi-B.
