Description:
On September 22, 2006, in the face of increasing infections and seemingly endless release of new variants into the wild, the Trend Micro Japan office declared a local alert to control the onslaught of WORM_STRATION, which was quickly gaining the notoriety for spawning iterations in rates not seen since 2005's MYTOB. In just a few weeks, WORM_STRATION was also found spreading like wild fire in the rest of the world, primarily in the US. Read an article documenting the STRATION event here: The STRATION Strategy. |
This Trojan arrives on a system as a file dropped by other WORM_STRAT variants.
It is installed in the Windows system folder using any of several file names.
