From TrendMicro:

"It modifies the registry so that whenever the infected user opens the legitimate mIRC program, it executes instead.

Once active, it allows a remote malicious user to connect to the system and perform any or all of the following:

Log activities of compromised machine
Launch distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks
Scan ports
Flood IRC servers
"

I have Trend Micro Sysclean Package,i run it and it says :
Load Damage Cleanup Template (DCT) "C:\Documents and Settings\Cris\My Documents\Kit\sysclean\tsc.ptn" (version 318) [success]
BKDR_IRCFLOOD.X[virus found]
-->delete registry data("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT","ChatFile\DefaultIcon",""C:\Program Files\mIRC\mirc.exe"") success
-->delete registry key("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT","ChatFile","") success
But on the the trendmicro page,it says something about ieexec.exe,wich execute itself instead of mirc.exe,something like that.Anyway I did not find no IEEXEC.exe on my computer or registry,though the sysclean says that i got infected.What's going on,and how do i get rid of that virus?Can you help me please...
