More Information
W32/Bagle-C is an email worm which sends itself via its own SMTP engine to addresses harvested from your hard disk.
The worm appears with a Microsoft Office 2000 Excel icon. When run the worm
opens NOTEPAD.EXE, copies itself to the Windows system folder as README.EXE and creates the following files in the same folder:
DOC.EXE - a DLL plugin used to load ONDE.EXE
ONDE.EXE - the main DLL component of the worm
README.EXEOPEN - a copy of the worm in ZIP format
W32/Bagle-C adds the value:
gouday.exe = <SYSTEM>\readme.exe
to the registry key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
This means that W32/Bagle-C runs every time you logon to your computer:
W32/Bagle-C also creates the following registry entries:
HKCU\Software\DateTime2\frun=1
HKCU\Software\DateTime2\port=2745

W32/Bagle-C opens up a backdoor on port 2745 and listens for connections. If it receives the appropriate command it attempts to download and execute a file. W32/Bagle-C also makes a web connection to a remote URL, thus reporting the location and open port of infected computers.
The worm terminates processes with the following names:
ATUPDATER.EXE
AVWUPD32.EXE
AVPUPD.EXE
LUALL.EXE
DRWEBUPW.EXE
ICSSUPPNT.EXE
ICSUPP95.EXE
UPDATE.EXE
NUPGRADE.EXE
ATUPDATER.EXE
AUPDATE.EXE
AUTODOWN.EXE
AUTOTRACE.EXE
AUTOUPDATE.EXE
AVXQUAR.EXE
CFIAUDIT.EXE
MCUPDATE.EXE
NUPGRADE.EXE
OUTPOST.EXE
AVLTMAIN.EXE
If the date is after 14 March 2004, W32/Bagle-C terminates itself and deletes all the registry entries it created when it first ran.
