More Information
Troj/Monad-A is a backdoor Trojan for the Windows paltform.
Troj/Monad-A runs continuously in the background, providing a backdoor server which allows a remote intruder to gain access and control over the computer via IRC channels.
When first run, Troj/Monad-A copies itself to <System>\webcam.exe, and creates the following registry entry so that it is automatically started when an infected computer starts:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
<Default>
<System>\webcam.exe
