Win32 worm

Description
W32/Capside-B is a worm that spreads via email and common file sharing networks. When run, the worm displays the message "W32.Capside.B.worm un producto de GEDZAC LABS."
In order to run automatically when Windows starts up the worm copies itself to a randomly named file in the System folder and adds the following registry entry:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\WinregB

Copies of the worm are also placed in the Windows folder as edispaC.exe and CapGEDZAC.pif.
