A worm that spreads in Spanish-language messages tries to intimidate an infected computer user in a rather morbid way by telling him that he will die in four days.
Panda Software was the first to discover a worm that is not intended to corrupt data or software on a computer, but to weaken the protection of the computer and intimidate the user.
The BlackAngel.B Trojan spreads primarily through the MSN Messenger instant messaging service. As soon as it gets on a computer, it immediately infects it. First, it displays an image with a small message. In this, the user can read that on the first day he is frightened, on the second he despairs, on the third he asks for help, while in four days he dies.
As the worm tries to scare the user, it performs a number of malicious actions in the background. For example, it shuts down antivirus software and various security applications. This makes your infected computer vulnerable to other malware. The BlackAngel.B worm then makes many Windows utilities inaccessible, such as Task Manager and Control Panel. When you're done, it looks for users in your MSN Messenger address list and forwards itself.
