Internet Worm Characteristics:
This is a generic detection for several W32/Bagle variants. This worm spreads by mass mailing, normally installing a backdoor component on the infected machine. This backdoor component can be used by the virus author to either update the infection to a later version, or conversely can be updated to be used for sending "spam".
A new Bagle variant W32/Bagle.w@MM has been identified by Trend Micro. This is identified as W32/Bagle.gen@MM with compressed files scanning enabled from the 4333 DATs.
