The worm installs a backdoor on the computer. It listens by default on port 2745. This backdoor can f.ex. be used for uploading and executing a program.

It attempts to contact the following web sites

http://permail.uni-muenster.de/scr.php
http://www.songtext.net/de/scr.php
http://www.sportscheck.de/scr.php

It accesses these web addresses with user ID and port no. as parameters; that way the hacker can log who is vulnerable and on which port.

It also looks for and kills the following processes:
