More Information
W32/VirtInf-A is a virus for the Windows platform.
When run W32/VirtInf-A creates a DLL in the system folder using a random name. The DLL file is detected as W32/VirtInf-A.
W32/VirtInf-A also creates a file in the current folder with the same name as the infected file except for an extra space character at the end of the name. For example, if the viral file is named 'test.exe' the dropped file is named 'test .exe'. The dropped file is a copy of the original, uninfected file.
