This is a mass-mailing worm with the following characteristics:
- contains its own SMTP engine to construct outgoing messages
- harvests email addresses from the victim machine
- the From: address of messages is spoofed
- contains a remote access component
- copies itself to folders that have the phrase shar in the name (such as common peer-to-peer applications; KaZaa, Bearshare, Limewire, etc)

The virus copies itself into the Windows System directory as BAWINDO.EXE. For example:
- C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\bawindo.exe
It also creates other files in this directory to perform its functions:
- C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\bawindo.exeopen
- C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\bawindo.exeopenopen
The following Registry key is added to hook system startup:
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Run "bawindo" = "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\bawindo.exe"
A mutex is created to ensure only one instance of the worm is running at a time. One of the following mutex names is used in an attempt to stop particular variants of W32/Netsky running on the infected machine:
- 'D'r'o'p'p'e'd'S'k'y'N'e't'

Overview -
This is a virus detection. Viruses are programs that self-replicate recursively, meaning that infected systems spread the virus to other systems, which then propagate the virus further. While many viruses contain a destructive payload, it's quite common for viruses to do nothing more than spread from one system to another.
