I-Worm.Galil
Galil is a worm virus spreading via the Internet as an attachment to infected emails. The worm consists of several components, all of which are Windows PE EXE files written in Visual Basic.
Worm components:
Main file: "iLLeGaL.exe", size approx. 81KB
Spreading component: "Mplayer.exe", size approx. 14KB when compressed by UPX, the decompressed size is 37KB
SMTP control: "SMTP.ocx", size approx. 26K when compressed by UPX, the decompressed size is 90KB
Installing
When the main worm file is run it installs itself and its other components into the system. While installing the worm copies its main file to the Windows system directory under the name "iLLegGaL.exe". The other worm components are installed into the same directory. The "Mplayer.exe" component is then registered in the system registry auto-run key:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices
iLLeGaL = %SystemDir%\Mplayer.exe
The worm then displays a fake Flash animation and the message:
Sorry !
Looooooooool , thanx fo da time u spent thinkin ov me
Spreading
The worm reads emails from victim computer MS Outlook address books and searches for email addresses in .HTM and .HTML files. To send infected messages the worm uses a direct connection to SMTP servers.
Infected email attributes include:
Subject: Fwd: Crazy illegal sex !
The message body text is randomly selected from a file on the C: drive or is in HTML format and contains text such as below:
Note: forwarded message attached.

Attachments:
iLLeGal.exe or illegalSex.zip
The worm activates from infected emails only when a user clicks on the attached file. If the attachment file is clicked the worm installs itself to the system and runs its spreading routine and payload.
Payload
The 'Galil' worm creates a new key (counter) in the system registry:
HKLM\iLLeGal
This counter is increased (advanced) each time the worm is run. When the counter reaches '5' the worm deletes all files on the D: E: F: and G: drives and then displays the message:
