More Information

W32/Anpir-A is a worm for the windows platform.

When run the worm will begin overwriting files in the current folder with itself thus effectively destroying them.

Files that are targetted have extensions of EXE, ZIP, MP3, AVI, RAR, NFO, TXT, MPG, BIN, ISO and JPG.

The worm will then send several emails to different addresses detailing the destroyed files.
