W32.Galil.F@mm is a mass-mailing worm that uses its own SMTP engine or Microsoft Outlook to spread. It harvests email addresses from the files in the current user's Temporary Internet Files folder, Yahoo Messenger, Microsoft Outlook address book, as well as the files whose extensions are .asf, .avi, .doc, .jpg, .mdb, .mpe, .mpeg, .mpg, .pps, .ram, .rar, or .xls.
The worm may spoof the "From" field. The email message has a randomly selected subject line, which may also be the attachment name. The attachment has a .bhx, .exe, .hqx, .mim, .uu , .uue, or .xxe extension.
It is written in the Microsoft Visual Basic (VB) programming language and is compressed with UPX.
