Worm:Win32/Gamarue.B is malware that may spread to removable drives and also communicates with a remote server to report its infection and download arbitrary files.

Microsoft security software detects and removes this threat.

Worms automatically spread to other PCs. They can do this in a number of ways, including by copying themselves to removable drives, network folders, or spreading via email.

Typically, worms can get on your PC if you visit a compromised website, open an unsafe email attachment, or use an infected removable or network drive (like a USB flash drive).
