Category Description:
Virus-like program that spreads automatically to other computers by sending itself out by email or by any other means. A program that propagates itself by attacking other machines and copying itself to the affected machine.
Worms have self-replicating code that travels from machine to machine by various means. A worms first objective is merely propagation. Worms can be destructive depending on what payload they have been given. Worms may replace files, but do not insert themselves into files.
Comment:
This email worm will copy itself to a shared folder on your hard drive. For instance this was found in this directory.C:\Program Files\funwebproducts\Shared. Funwebproducts and this worm are UNRELATED. This was just an example as to where we found this.

windown longhorn beta leak.exe
