Realtraders,
Several days ago I received an attachment to an email named
"happy99.exe". Immediately after receiving this post, my Norton Antivirus
(NAV) program automatically detected that this happy99.exe file contained a
virus. My options via NAV were to repair or delete this file. Obviously,
I deleted it and then contacted the sender of the original post, a friend
of mine. To his surprise, HE HAD NO IDEA THAT HE EVEN SENT ME THIS
"HAPPY99.EXE" FILE. After the fact, he determined that his computer was
infected and he had to send several hours rectifying the problem.
Subsequently, I received a message from my ISP provider (Erols Internet)
and they address this current virus, as well as another. Since I have
personal experience with this current infestation, I thought I would
include Erols' message for your review.
Hope this helps,
John Boggio - RT Moderator
PS As many of you know, there are a lot of Hoax messages that flood the
Internet in any given month regarding a potential virus or Trojan Horse
which are NOT true. Therefore, in an attempt to avoid a lot of distraction
on the RealTraders's Forum, please refrain from sending or forwarding those
"Hoax" post to the forum UNLESS the person that sent you the message is a
RELIABLE source, such as an ISP provider or Antivirus companies such as
Norton or McAfee etc. Or, you have first hand knowledge of any viruses in
which you may have been infected. Thanks again and have a good weekend.
Below is Erols' message

TIP OF THE WEEK I - Happy99.exe worm - (New)
-----------------
Our e-mail support staff answers hundreds of e-mails a day. In the
past week, at least five customers have inadvertently sent us this
Happy99.exe worm. We figure that about 2 percent of the
mail we get is now carrying the Happy99.exe worm and we'd like to get
that figure back to zero percent.
If you have recently run a program that displays fireworks in a small
window that says "Happy New Year 1999", most likely your computer has
this worm.
First, let's get rid of that program and then we'll tell you more about
it.
NOTE: As far as we know, this worm ONLY affects Windows 95/98/NT users.
Windows 3.1, Macintosh and other operating systems are apparently not
affected.
------------
INSTRUCTIONS
------------
1. Print out these instructions.
2. Click Start | Shut Down | "Restart Computer in MS-DOS mode"
3. At the DOS prompt, type the commands below that are in CAPS exactly,
and press enter at the end of each line:
4. CD \WINDOWS\SYSTEM
5. DEL SKA.EXE (Note: If you get a File Not Found error, either you
are not infected or this file is located somewhere else on your
computer.)
6. DEL SKA.DLL
7. COPY WSOCK32.SKA WSOCK32.DLL
8. Answer "Yes" if it asks if you want to overwrite WSOCK32.DLL.
Explanation: WSOCK32.SKA is a backup of the original WSOCK32.DLL
made by the virus. You are replacing the modified DLL with the
original.
9. Return to Windows by typing EXIT
If upon rebooting, Windows displays an error message that it cannot
find SKA.exe, continue with the steps below. Note: Using the Registry
Editor incorrectly can lead to serious problems in Microsoft Windows
and Windows applications. Erols/RCN Internet assumes no responsibility
for mistakes or errors that result of incorrectly using the Registry
Editor.
1. Click Start | Run, then type regedit and click OK.
2. Click at the + to the left of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
3. Click at the + to the left of Software
4. Click at the + to the left of Microsoft
5. Click at the + to the left of Windows
6. Click at the + to the left of CurrentVersion.
7. Look under the following folders: Run, RunOnce, RunOnceEx,
RunServices, RunServicesOnce. Check for SKA.EXE and select it if it
is there. Hit the Delete key.
8. Close Regedit.
There is a file that keeps track of anyone you may have inadvertently
sent that file to. It is called: LISTE.SKA and you can find it under
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\LISTE.SKA
-------------------------------------
WORMS? I'VE ONLY HEARD ABOUT VIRUSES!
-------------------------------------
Merriam-Webster's Online Dictionary defines a worm as: "a usually small
self-contained computer program that invades computers on a network and
usually performs a malicious action."
--------------------------
SO WHAT DOES THIS WORM DO?
--------------------------
The Happy99.exe is more of a nuisance than a threat. It doesn't delete
any files on your computer. It doesn't open a "back door" into your
computer (as our next TIP describes). Basically, every time you send
an e-mail or post to a newsgroup, you send a copy of the worm to the
recipients of your message. And if they run the program, they get
infected and then their messages will send out the worm, and so on.

TIP OF THE WEEK II - BACK ORIFICE - (New)
------------------
As some of you may know, Windows 95 doesn't have a built in method that
allows you (or anyone else, for that matter) to gain remote access to
your computer. Under normal circumstances, if you're running Windows
95, no one can connect to your computer from a remote location and
upload files or download files or access your computer in any other
way.
Recently, however, a program has appeared on the Internet that grants
this sort of access. The program is called BACK ORIFICE, and if you
have it on your system, it will start itself whenever you turn on your
computer. Whenever you connect to the Internet, it will allow hackers
and crackers access to your computer and the contents therein.
These individuals are derogatorily referred to as "script kiddies"
because they don't posses any real knowledge about hacking computers,
rather they use the BACK ORIFICE program to do their dirty work for
them. They can upload child porn to your computer, or download your
financial records, or format your hard drive, or commit other mischief
as the mood strikes them.
The most common use of this program, however, is to allow hackers and
crackers to mask their trails. If I'm a hacker and you're running BACK
ORIFICE, I can connect to your computer and use your computer as a
"jumping point" to connect to other computers, like the Pentagon. The
Pentagon computers can't see my computer at all -- but they can see
yours. And when I hack into their system and they trace the attempt,
YOU will be the one implicated.
At this point you should be thinking "Yeah, that's bad and all, but who
in their right minds would install or run this BACK ORIFICE program?"
And you'd be right. But BACK ORIFICE is distributed like a virus, so
you might have it and not realize it. You won't know you've been
infected until you find your account suspended for hacking activities.
And complaints about BACK ORIFICE activity compromise the majority of
the complaints received by our Abuse Department.
Rather than run the risk of having your account suspended temporarily
due to hacking activity that seems to come from your computer, take a
few minutes to check your system and make sure that you're not
infected. To do so, go to the following webpage:
http://www.nwi.net/~pchelp/bo/bo.html
This website has copious amounts of info about BACK ORIFICE, including
step-by-step instructions on how to tell if you have it, and step-by-
step instructions on how to remove it. It also tells you which anti-
BACK ORIFICE programs are really BACK ORIFICE in disguise. Give
yourself some peace of mind and check out this website, then check out
your computer to see if you're infected. You'll be glad you did.
Note: The name BACK ORIFICE is a corruption of the Microsoft product
Back Office, a collection of programs that allow you to setup your own
web and mail servers. RCN is not affiliated with the above website in
any way, and you use the instructions on the above website at your own
risk.
