 Files It copies itself to the following location:
   • %SYSDIR%\IRQconf.exe



It deletes the initially executed copy of itself.



The following files are created:

– c:\a.bat Furthermore it gets executed after it was fully created. Detected as: BAT/REG.Zapchast

– C:\DOCUME~1\name1252\LOCALS~1\Temp\1.reg Furthermore it gets executed after it was fully created. Contains parameters used by the malware. Detected as: TR/TCPParams.D.3

 Registry The following registry keys are continuously in an infinite loop added in order to run the processes after reboot.

–  [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
   • "IRQ Assigning Agent"="IRQconf.exe"

–  [HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices]
   • "IRQ Assigning Agent"="IRQconf.exe"



The following registry key is added:

– [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\OLE]
   • "IRQ Assigning Agent"="IRQconf.exe"



The following registry keys are changed:
