- Type:
- Trojan Horse
- Systems Affected:
- Windows 2000, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT, Windows XP
When W32.Gezak runs, it copies itself as %windir%\VGA32.exe.
NOTE: %windir% is a variable. The Trojan locates the Windows main installation folder (by default, this is C:\Windows or C:\Winnt) and uses it as a destination folder.
When a Microsoft Office program is started, the virus attempts to copy itself to the A drive.
