March 8th, 2009
Conficker is damaging machines very fast. Usxusally it attcks windows 2000, XP, and server 2003. It spread through Microsoft Windows Server Service RPC Handling Remote Code Execution Vulnerability.
Once this virus infects a computer it does a number of things including:
- Extracts all of its files to the System directory with random DLL file names, which can damage completely to your system.
- Abolish the restore points.
- Registers a services called Netsvcs
- Creates scheduled tasks that execute all of the DLL files.
- Creates it’s own simple HTTP server on the infected computer and spreads the worm to other computers in the network through file shares.
- Creates an Autorun.inf file in file shares to execute the warm files once the share is accessed by another computer.
- Connects to external sites to download additional files.
