Valentine Trojan Strikes

valentine.exe is a variation of the Storm trojan that has been going around the Internet for quite some time. As Valentine's Day has just passed, reports (from unknown source) have found several users falling victim to this virus.

The trojan is propagated via email with subjects like "My Heart For You", "You're My Valetine!" and "Poem About Us". The infected file will contain a link to a website or a file named "valentine.exe".

Once an Internet user clicked on the file, the malicious code will convert the computer into a zombie machine, which connects itself to be part of a network, infected with the Storm trojan.

The network of zombie computer controls the client system to send out bulk and spam emails to all contacts within the users' address book.
