Behaviour	Description
WormAutorun	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.

Process activity

The Worm creates the following process(es):

cmiadapter.exe:600
Installer.exe:628
AppLaunch.exe:1648
reg.exe:740
reg.exe:572
reg.exe:700
reg.exe:532
reg.exe:1792

The Worm injects its code into the following process(es):

%original file name%.exe:1360
cmiadapter.exe:228
PrintConfig.exe:1552
AppLaunch.exe:632

File activity

The process %original file name%.exe:1360 makes changes in the file system.

The Worm creates and/or writes to the following file(s):

%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\cmiadapter.exe (16 bytes)
%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Application Data\Installer.exe (3876 bytes)
%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\PrintConfig.exe (12287 bytes)

The process PrintConfig.exe:1552 makes changes in the file system.

The Worm deletes the following file(s):

%Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\PrintConfig.exe (0 bytes)

The process AppLaunch.exe:632 makes changes in the file system.

The Worm creates and/or writes to the following file(s):

Removals

Remove it with Ad-Aware

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

Manual removal*

1. Terminate malicious process(es) (How to End a Process With the Task Manager):

   cmiadapter.exe:600
   Installer.exe:628
   AppLaunch.exe:1648
   reg.exe:740
   reg.exe:572
   reg.exe:700
   reg.exe:532
   reg.exe:1792

2. Delete the original Worm file.
   
3. Delete or disinfect the following files created/modified by the Worm:

   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\cmiadapter.exe (16 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Application Data\Installer.exe (3876 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\PrintConfig.exe (12287 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\WindowsApp (33 bytes)
   %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\WindowsApp.exe (59 bytes)

4. Remove the references to the Worm by modifying the following registry value(s) (How to Work with System Registry):

   [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon]
   "Shell" = "%WinDir%\explorer.exe, %Documents and Settings%\%current user%\Local Settings\Temp\cmiadapter.exe"

5. Clean the Temporary Internet Files folder, which may contain infected files (How to clean Temporary Internet Files folder).
   
6. Find and delete all copies of the worm's file together with "autorun.inf" scripts on removable drives.
   
7. Reboot the computer.
   

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