Eliles.A is also known as VBS/Eliles.A.
Eliles.A is a Visual Basic Script worm. It also tries to affect mobile phones using a SIS file located on a web page. Due to the fact that this page is not available anymore this routine does not work.

Upon execution, the script performs the following actions:
Changes the local Administrator and Administrative User accounts' password to "Leslie".
Runs winrar and winzip and tries to create an archive copy of itself as C:WindowsFontsC.Vitae.zip
Tries to kill and terminate several security applications:
- apvxdwin.exe
- AVENGINE.exe
- bdnagent.exe
- bdswitch.exe
- mcagent.exe
- mcdetect.exe
- navapsvc.exe
- navapw32.exe
- navw32.exe
- pavcl.com
- PavFires.exe
- savscan.exe
- and disables some administrative settings to make it harder to remove the malware.
The worm copies itself in the Windows %system% (C:WINDOWSsystem32) folder as:
- IExplore.vbe
- msn.vbe
- msnmsgr.vbe
Eliles.A creates a folder named C:MSOCache and copies itself there.
It also drops copies of itself to the following hard coded locations as:
- C:windowsSystemmsnmsgr.vbe
- C:WindowsSystem32SetupMesssenger.vbs
It creates the following registry entry to execute itself during Windows restart:
- HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRunMSN Messenger = "C:WindowsSystem32SetupMessenger.vbs"
It also drops the following links in the desktop (supporting English and Spanish Windows installations).
- Internet Explorer.lnk (Icon set to fake Internet Explorer)
- MSN Messenger.lnk (Icon set to fake MSN Messenger)
- which points and runs the malware when opened.
This worm propagates through network drives by creating a copy of itself as msn.vbe in each discovered network drive.
It also builds and sends e-mail messages using Outlook that appear as follows:
- To: @vodafone.es
cc: @movistar.es
Subject: Msj Operador: Proteja su movil
Body: Descarguese gratis el Antivirus para Nokias Series 60.
