HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

to run itself on system restart.

The Trojan creates the registry entry

HKLM\Software\CurrentControlSet\Services\Swartax\ImagePath =
"C:\<Windows system>\MSREXE.EXE".

and also creates several registry entries at

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Welcome

Troj/Bdoor-AML attempts to use the affected computer as a proxy SMTP email server.
