Propagation

A worm can spread via removable drives. It writes its executable and creates "autorun.inf" scripts on all removable drives. The autorun script will execute the Worm's file once a user opens a drive's folder in Windows Explorer.

Removals

Remove it with Ad-Aware

Click (here) to download and install Ad-Aware Free Antivirus.
Update the definition files.
Run a full scan of your computer.

Manual removal*

Terminate malicious process(es) (How to End a Process With the Task Manager):
%original file name%.exe:3772
Delete the original Worm file.
Delete or disinfect the following files created/modified by the Worm:
%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\log1 (33 bytes)
%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Application Data\6N53R1LD16.exe (3860 bytes)
%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\services.exe (6841 bytes)
%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\AcRuntime.dll (5873 bytes)
%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\AcRuntime64.dll (2321 bytes)
Find and delete all copies of the worm's file together with "autorun.inf" scripts on removable drives.
Reboot the computer.

*Manual removal may cause unexpected system behaviour and should be performed at your own risk.
