Currently Notice: Undefined variable: incprefix in /data/www/xblock/product_show.php on line 123 25,860,543 Spy Software Busted!
Full Name:
 Esbot
Type: Worm
Danger Level: 6
Category Description: Virus-like program that spreads automatically to other computers by sending itself out by email or by any other means. A program that propagates itself by attacking other machines and copying itself to the affected machine.

Worms have self-replicating code that travels from machine to machine by various means. A worms first objective is merely propagation. Worms can be destructive depending on what payload they have been given. Worms may replace files, but do not insert themselves into files.
Comment: Once the Esbot worm is installed by exploiting the Microsoft Windows Plug and Play Buffer Overflow Vulnerability, it will install various unwanted programs via active X controls. It will create a fake service as well as various entries to the infected PC's winlogon.exe.
