Re: [Full-Disclosure] Fwd: YOUR PAYPAL.COM ACCOUNT EXPIRES



Delete it or forward it to abuse@yahoo.com.

The attachment is a yet another trojan-du-jour set to snarf a host of 
information through lines including but not limited to the following 
buzzwords:

KERNEL32.DLL
ADVAPI32.DLL
CRTDLL.DLL
GDI32.DLL
iphlpapi.DLL
SHELL32.DLL
USER32.DLL
wsock32.dll
LoadLibraryA
GetProcAddress
ExitProcess
RegCloseKey
exit
GetStockObject
GetNetworkParams
ShellExecuteA
SetTimer
recv

(I'm lazy and am pasting only the end of strings output.)

Have fun.
