When first run W32/Vanebot-I copies itself to <System>\msijavaup32.exe.
The following registry entries are created to run msijavaup32.exe on startup:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices
Ms Java for Windows NT
msijavaup32.exe
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices
Ms Java for Windows NT
msijavaup32.exe
The following registry entry is changed to run msijavaup32.exe on startup:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Shell
Explorer.exe msijavaup32.exe
(The default value for this registry entry is "Explorer.exe" which causes the Microsoft file <Windows>\Explorer.exe to be run on startup.)
W32/Vanebot-I sets the following registry entries, disabling the automatic startup of other software:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\wuauserv
Start
4
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess
Start
4
Note: disabling autostart for the SharedAccess service deactivates the Microsoft Internet Connection Firewall (ICF).
Registry entries are set as follows:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Ole
EnableDCOM

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
