More Information

W32/Sdranck-D is a multi-component network worm.

W32/Sdranck-D drops two files to the winnt\system32 folder, EDETOYASY.EXE and XICAC.EXE. EDETOYASY.EXE is the Troj/Ranck-CQ proxy Trojan and XICAC.EXE is the W32/Sdbot-YC network worm. It is this latter file that spreads W32/Sdranck-D to network shares with weak passwords and via network security exploits.
