W32.Maslan A+.Worm

New very bad virus is now in the net. I hope Avast Team will make updates with definisions for this virus and after a while we can catch it. ;D

I read all Symantec forum and there is no information about this virus. But I find it on computer that now arrive from America and may be is poisened there and now is All Over The World :slight_smile:

That worm was discovered on 7 december last year. It is not a new one.
And as you can see in the virus database as well as in the vps history, Avast already can detect it.

Check the VPS history here: http://www.avast.com/eng/vps_history.html

Its been detected since VPS 0450-0, 06.12.2004 :slight_smile:

Excuse me but i made some mistake - The virus is MaslanA +++ with 3 plus and i don’t know that is now available in this forum.

Maslan A = Maslan A
If there is a new version it will be called Maslan B than Maslan C etc.
The +++ has nothing to do with the name.

Ok but why Symantec doesn’t have any infotmation about it and why this virus is deleting *:\Windows\system\32 all ?

Symantec (and others) do have information on it.
