Description: 
This worm propagates via email and network shared drives. It is similar to WORM_KLEZ.A and the other variants in functionality. The email it sends carries the file infector, PE_ELKERN.A, the same EXE file infector that WORM_KLEZ.A carries.

On odd numbered system months (January, March, May, July, September, and November), it zeroes out all the files in the network shared drives.
