RE: New Virus?

There are several things that folks can do prior to
submitting to the list(s), or to A/V companies...

1.  Post the file for others to view, or make it
available upon request.

2.  Perform some analysis of the file.  Strings.exe
from Sysinternals.com or BinText from FoundStone
obviate the need for a Linux box just to run strings. 
Try PEDump from http://www.wheaty.net/downloads.htm. 
Or Dependency Walker from dependencywalker.com.

3.  If the file is obfuscated or encrypted, try PeID
from http://peid.has.it/ to determine which method is
used (if possible).

Thanks,

Harlan
