ICQ-Worm/Virus -- Avast Scan-Engine have to be updated!

Viruses and worms

A few weeks ago, a new ICQ-Worm was published. But there is a problem: The Avast Scan Engine does not know this new virus.
@ Avast Team:
Please update your scan-engine. This virus sends itself to other people who are in the ICQ-Contactlist of the infected Computer by using a ICQ-Account. Some users reported that the virus would delete files on their harddisks and it always infects the system32 directory of Windows.

The Virus creates a text in every message which contains the virus:
For e.g :
New Parys Hilton party pics =)
http : // 7327.lerinjderunhadesunjin.com/9/794/

Can you send the samples to virus@avast.com ?
You can zip and password the files… Inform a link to this thread and the password used.
You can send the files to Chest and, from there, resend to Alwil for analysis.
Thanks.

Please don’t post active links to suspect or infected files, this could infect the curious or through accidental clicking of an active link, using the Modify button edit the link so it is broken, e.g. http : // 7327.lerinjderunhadesunjin.com/9/794/

Edit, sample sent to avast.
