Virus:VBS/Starter.A.gen
Updated on May 26, 2010
Virus:VBS/Starter.A.gen is a generic detection for VB Script viruses that launch executables on the local machine using infected active desktop templates (HTT files for customizing a folder's view). The folder template is altered by the executable part of the virus.
Once the user opens or browses a folder with the infected active desktop template (HTT file), the infected template, and thus the virus, is run. It then infects other HTT files found in the system.
This virus exploits a vulnerability in a Microsoft ActiveX control addressed in MS99-032.
