"iexplore.exe" = "Internet Explorer"

[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]
"Cache" = "%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files"

To automatically run itself each time Windows is booted, the Trojan adds the following link to its file to the system registry autorun key:

[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"18.exe" = "%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application DataMicrosoft\System\Services\18.exe"
