More Information

VBS/Grate-B arrives in a email with the subject line "Merry Christmas!!!" and no body text. The attachment is called greetings.txt.vbs.

When executed, the worm attempts to copy itself to the Cursors folder in the Windows directory as greetings.txt.vbs. It also tries to mail itself to everyone in all Outlook addresss books, using the email format described above, and attempts to mail PWL files to an email account in Poland.
