Symantec added a variant of mIRC Trojan to its virus definition on 2/13/2003, and the worm/Trojan was based the older mIRC Trojan (ocxdll.exe/ taskmngr.exe). The original analysis is at http://www.klcconsulting.net/mirc_virus_analysis.htm I saw a more than usual port 445 activities on incidents.org around 2/8-2/9, and again on the last few days, so I cross-checked Symantec site, and found the mIRC worm/Trojan variant, Backdoor.IRC.Zcrew. This variant used port 445 like the older ocxdll.exe Trojan. As I did some more research, I noticed that TrendMicro analyzed this variant back in 12/3/2002, so I guess it was not new, but just re-spreading. I am curious how many people have seen this activities? If you have a copy of this virus, can you contact me? I am interested in analyzing this worm/Trojan file(s).
