The Trojan downloads updates to itself from the remote malicious user

If your computer does not have an up-to-date antivirus, or does not have an antivirus solution at all, follow the instructions below to delete the malicious program:

1. Use Task Manager to terminate the Trojan process.
2. Delete the following folder and its contents:

   %Program Files%\q~1

3. Delete the following system registry key parameter: [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
   "bab" = "c:\progra~1\q~1\svchst32.exe"
4. Update your antivirus databases and perform a full scan of the computer (download a trial version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus).

This Trojan launches a proxy server on the victim machine without the knowledge or consent of the user. It is a Windows PE EXE file. The file is 28,796 bytes in size. It is not packed in any way.

Installation

When launched, the Trojan will copy its executable file as:

%Program Files%\q~1\svchst32.exe

The original file which was launched is then deleted.

The Trojan also adds a link to its executable file in the system registry, ensuring that the Trojan will be launched when Windows is rebooted on the victim machine:

[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"bab" = "c:\progra~1\q~1\svchst32.exe"

The Trojan also creates the following file:

c:\!stealth.txt
