More Information
Troj/Yar-A is a Trojan for the Windows platform.
Once installed Troj/Yar-A creates the files:
<Temp>\dld_2urls_dd3_nonpack_rpolycrypt.exe - detected as Troj/Yar-A.
<Temp>\pirate_alert.exe - non malicious file that can be safely removed.
The file <Temp>\pirate_alert.exe is then run and will display a fake error message with the title "Unsupported MPEG Codec Error: Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End" and the message "Unsupported MPEG Codec Error: Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. Go to official web site: <URL link>".
Troj/Yar-A may be spammed out via email as an zip attachment with the subject lines:
"Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End -- The Official Trailer"
"Pirates of the Caribbean 3"
<no subject line>
The message body may also contain a brief synopsis of the movie.
