Once launched, the Trojan copies itself to the Windows system directory as "winsys.dll". The Trojan also creates the following system registry key: :

[HKLM\Software\SlySoft\Sly]

The Trojan also adds the following parameter to the system registry:

[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices]
"winsys" = "winsys.dll"

This ensures that the Trojan will be launched each time Windows is booted on the victim machine.

The Trojan also creates a unique identifier, “slyishere”, to flag its presence in the system:
