Information om virus Buzus.JR

Buzus.JR is a Trojan, which although seemingly inoffensive, can actually carry out attacks and intrusions.

It reduces the security level of the computer: it awaits remote-control orders received through IRC.

It uses stealth techniques to avoid being detected by the user:

• It uses techniques included in its code to hide itself while it is active.

Buzus.JR uses the following propagation or distribution methods:

• Exploiting vulnerabilities with the intervention of the user: exploiting vulnerabilities in file formats or applications. To exploit them successfully it needs the intervention of the user: opening files, viewing malicious web pages, reading emails, etc.
• IRC: It sends a copy of itself to all users connected to the channel to which the infected user is connected.
• Instant messaging: it sends links pointing to a copy of itself to all users included in the infected user's contacts list.
