More Information
W32/Swap-C is a simple worm which attempts to spread to drive A.
When run the worm will copy itself to c:\Program Files\Common Files\System as Swap.exe, register itself as a service and create the following registry entry so as to auto-start on computer reboot:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\
Update ver 1.0 = c:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Swap.exe
W32/Swap-C will also enumerate and monitor windows for some particular text which when observed will trigger the worm to copy itself to drive A.
