    At the time of writing Sophos has received no reports from users
    affected by this worm. However, we have issued this advisory
    following enquiries to our support department from customers.

    Description:

    W32/Enemany-B is a Win32 worm that emails itself to everyone in
    your Microsoft Outlook address book. The email will have the
    following characteristics:

    Subject line: Edonkey Update
    Message text: Edonkey User, this is the Update tool, to fix our
    Edonkey Client to 35.16.61
    Attached file: Esel_Update.Exe

    When first run the worm copies itself to the Windows folder as
    Esel_Update.Exe and to the Windows System folder as Edonkey.scr.


    The worm creates the following registry entry so that it is run
    automatically each time you restart the computer:

    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices\(Default)
    = C:\WINDOWS\Esel_Update.EXE
