Some reports that a file "photo album.zip" is spreading quickly via MSN messenger now. We have confirmed that it is a variant of Backdoor.Win32.IRCBot. If someone receives messages via MSN as following,please don't open it.

In the .zip file, there is a file "photo album2007.pif", 18,944 bytes, packed with UPX, Kaspersky detects it as Backdoor.Win32.IRCBot.aaq.

Upon execution, this ircbot drops a copy.

%windows%\photo album.zip

And drops a .dll file, inserts this .dll file into Explorer.exe.

%system%\rdshost.dll
