More Information
W32/Delbot-R is a worm with IRC backdoor functionality for the Windows platform.
W32/Delbot-R 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.
W32/Delbot-R spreads to other network computers by scanning network shares for weak passwords and by exploiting common buffer overflow vulnerabilities, including Symantec (SYM06-010).
W32/Delbot-R includes functionality to download, install and run new software.
When first run W32/Delbot-R copies itself to <System>\netbeans.exe.
The following registry entry is created to run netbeans.exe on startup:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Netbeans
<System>\netbeans.exe
