    The worm deletes the following registry key, making it impossible to boot the infected computer in Safe Mode:
    HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SafeBoot


    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
     "winshost.exe" = "%winsysdir%\winshost.exe"

    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

    "winshost.exe" = "%winsysdir%\winshost.exe"

    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
    "drv_st_key" = "%Documents and Settings%\Application Data\hidn\hidn2.exe"

    where '%winsysdir%' represents Windows System folder. This ensures the trojan is run every time Windows starts.
    When the dropped DLL is activated, it will check for the following registry value:

    HKCU\Software\FirstRun
     "FirstRunRR" = dword:value

    If the value doesn't exist, the trojan creates it and sets it as 1. The DLL also opens MS paint (mspaint.exe) as a decoy and executes the actual payload.


    Exit the Registry Editor.
    Restart your Computer.

    Email-Worm.Win32.Mydoom.m

    Email-Worm.Win32.Mydoom.m (Kaspersky Lab) is also known as: I-Worm.Mydoom.m (Kaspersky Lab), W32/Mydoom.o@MM (McAfee), W32.Mydoom.M@mm (Symantec), Win32.HLLM.MyDoom.54464 (Doctor Web), W32/MyDoom-O (Sophos), Win32/Mydoom.O@mm (RAV), WORM_MYDOOM.M (Trend Micro), Worm/Mydoom.M (H+BEDV), W32/Mydoom.O@mm (FRISK), Win32:Mydoom-M (ALWIL), I-Worm/Mydoom.O (Grisoft), Win32.Mydoom.M@mm (SOFTWIN/BitDefender), Worm.Mydoom.M (ClamAV), W32/Mydoom.N.worm (Panda), Win32/Mydoom.R (Eset)

    Behavior: Email Worm

    I-Worm.Mydoom.m spreads via the Internet as an attachment to infected messages.

    The worm itself is a Windows PE EXE file approximately 27KB in size, packed using UPX. The unpacked file is approximately 50KB in size.

    The worm is only activated when a user opens the archive and launches the infected file by double-clicking on it. The worm will then install itself on the system and begin propagating.

    The worm contains a backdoor function.

    Part of the body of the worm is encrypted.

    Installation

    When installing, the worm copies itself as 'java.exe' to the Windows root directory, and registers this file in the system registry. This ensures the worm will be launched each time the infected system is booted.
    [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
    [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
      JavaVM = %windir%\java.exe

    This ensures the worm will be launched each time the infected system is booted.

    The worm also creates a file named 'services.exe.', which is 8192 bytes in size, in the Windows root directory. This file is an additional component, and is also added to the system registry:
    [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
    [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
    Services = %windir%\services.exe
