An example of a "Talorm" email message:
The worm activates from infected emails only when a user clicks on the attached file. If this happens Talorm then installs itself to the system and runs its spreading routine.
The worm then overwrites a registry key with new text:
HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersion
RegisteredOwner = Thalia"
and displays the message:
Installing
While installing the worm copies itself to the Windows directory with the "Thalia.chm" name and registers this file in the system registry auto-run key:
HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun
Thalia = %WinDir%Thalia.CHM
Spreading: EMail
To send infected messages the worm uses MS Outlook and sends messages to all addresses found in each victim machine's Outlook address book.
Spreading: IRC
The worm looks for the mIRC subdirectory in the "Program Files" directory and writes a new "script.ini" file to this location. This script file has instructions that send worm copies to every user who joins an infected IRC channel.
