File extension BMW description:
W32/Liji-A is a virus for the Windows platform.
When run W32/Liji-A creates the file
<Temp>\<random numbers>.bmw. This file is
also detected as W32/Liji-A.
Once installed W32/Liji-A attempts to infect file executables. The
infected files will then attempt to download files from a remote
website and run it. The infected files are also detected as W32/Liji-A.
W32/Liji-A also attempts to spread by copying itself via:
- network shares protected by weak passwords, as the filename krdown.exe
- removeable shared drives, as the filename
<Root>\autorunx.exe. It does this by creating the file
<Root>\autorun.inf that contains instructions to run the
virus
when the removeable drive is connected to an uninfected computer.
W32/Liji-A also copies itself to
<System>\spool\svchost.exe
and creates the following registry entry to run itself on startup:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
wlinles
<System>\spool\svchost.exe
