An unknown author has created a worm aimed at infecting Gnutella users.
Possibly malicious in intent, but benign in reality, the worm uses the Visual Basic Script language to store itself on an infected computer in 23 different files named, for example, Pamela Anderson movie listing.vbs, collegesex.vbs, Battlefield Earth.vbs, Napster Metallica Crack.vbs and NSync.vbs.



The worm targets Gnutella by changing the gnutella.ini file to accept Visual Basic Script files and places the 23 Trojan files in the Gnutella download directory so that others on the network may find them.
