Troj/Toader-A is a backdoor Trojan for the Windows platform.

When first run Troj/Toader-A copies itself to <System>\oobe\sysoobe.exe and
creates the file <System>\oobe\ws_sk32.dll.

ws_sk32.dll is used to a remote command prompt, giving a remote intruder access
to an infected computer.

The following registry entry is created to run sysoobe.exe on startup:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Gestionnaire de disques universel
<System>\oobe\sysoobe.exe
