A virus in the X97M.Laroux.gen family typically spreads only.

These viruses generally do not have any payloads and usually reside in only one macro module; although combinations of two modules are known to exist.

Most variants of X97M.Laroux.gen use the auto_open() sub function to become active and copy themselves into any opened Excel Workbook.
