Klez.H is the most common world-wide spreading worm.It's very dangerous by corrupting your files. Because of its very smart stealth and anti-anti-virus technic,most common AV software can't detect or clean it. We developed this free immunity tool to defeat the malicious virus. You only need to run this tool once,and then Klez will never come into your PC.

Worm/Yaha.P is using the IFRAME Exploit Security hole. Thus, it can be activated in the preview of the attachment, and the user does not need to open it.

Worm/Yaha.P can also spread itself over networks, for example over mapped network drives. If it finds the following files on such a drive: WINDOWS, WIN98, WIN95, WINME, WINNT, WINXP or WIN, the worm copies itself as REG32.EXE and modifying the entry of Win.ini, the worm will be activated by the next system start.

If the worm can find the folder "Documents and settings\All users\Start menu\Programs\Autostart\" on a network drive, it copies itself as MSRegScanner.exe and it will be activated by the next system start. The worm can terminate, just like its predecessors or like Worm/Klez.E, a series of active antivirus or firewall processes. It will stop immediately those applications, which use the following window names:

* Windows Task Manager
* System Configuration Utility
* Registry Editor
* Process Viewer

Worm/Yaha.P makes the registry entry:

[HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Snakes]
"Author" = "R0xx"
"Version" = "2"
"Web" = "http://www.indiansnakes.cjb.net"
"Comments" = "This system belongs to the great Indians..."

and changes the website start of Internet Explorer into:

'www.indiansnakes.cjb.net'

Worm/Yaha.P tries to delete the following files from the local hard disk:
* WinRpcsrv.exe
* WinGate.exe
* syshelp.exe
* tcpsvs32.exe
* nav32_loader.exe
* WinServices.exe
* winmgm32.exe
