What is K0wbot:

This is another Internet worm that uses the popular file sharing KaZaA network to spread; besides this, it includes an IRC remote control backdoor component. It is written in C and the executable is compressed and crypted; it also uses some protection techniques to make reverse-engineering difficult.

When run, the virus copies itself as explorer32.exe in the Windows System folder and registers this copy to be run at every Windows start-up by creating the registry entries described above.

Symptoms:
· the file explorer32.exe in the Windows System folder;
· a lot of copies of the virus (with different names, but all aprox. 19 KB in size) in the KaZaA shared folder, usually C:\Program Files\KaZaA\My Shared Folder.

· detects all known versions of K0wbot (1.2, 1.3A, 1.3B);
· deletes the files infected with K0wbot;
