The trojan may set the following Registry entries:

  • [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\­SOFTWARE\­Microsoft\­Windows\­CurrentVersion\­Run]
    • "%variable1%" = "%programfiles%\­file.exe"

This causes the trojan to be executed on every system start.

The file is then executed.


The trojan executes the following files:

  • %malwarefilepath%

The trojan creates and runs a new thread with its own code within these running processes.


The trojan quits immediately if the executable file path contains one of the following strings:

  • appd
