Upon viewing a page hosting the JS/Spacehero-A virus, the virus adds itself to the list of Heroes in the Interests section of the person viewing the profile, with the phrase "but most of all, samy is my hero."
Consequently, whenever anyone views a user profile hosting the virus, their profile will be altered to host the virus too, and the virus will spread.
JS/Spacehero-A is entirely imited to the myspace.com website. At the time of writing, JS/Spacehero-A has been removed from the Myspace website.
