Symantec reports W32.Mydoom.CI@mm
W32.Mydoom.CI@mm is a mass-mailing worm that opens a back door and uses its
own SMTP engine to spread through e-mail. It opens a back door on the compromised
computer, allowing unauthorised access to a remote attacker.
Further, it sends e-mail to addresses gathered from the compromised computer.
If the worm detects an open Outlook window, it attempts to close the window
and send itself to e-mail addresses it gathers.
The worm affects Windows 2000, 95, 98, Me, NT, Server 2003 and XP.
