Description
Free utility to remove the W32.Novarg.A@mm (Win32/Shimg.Worm, W32/Mydoom@MM)
Features
W32.Novarg.A@mm is a mass-mailing worm that arrives as an attachment with the file extension .bat, .cmd, .exe, .pif, .scr, or .zip.
When a computer is infected, the worm will set up a backdoor into the system by opening TCP ports 3127 through 3198, which can potentially allow an attacker to connect to the computer and use it as a proxy to gain access to its network resources.
In addition, the backdoor can download and execute arbitrary files.
The worm will perform a Denial of Service (DoS) starting on February 1, 2004. It also has a trigger date to stop spreading on February 12, 2004.
Also Known As: W32/Mydoom@MM [McAfee], WORM_MIMAIL.R [Trend]
