Note:

%AppData% is a variable that refers to the file system directory that serves as a common repository for application-specific data. A typical path is C:\Documents and Settings\[UserName]\Application Data.

Memory Modifications

There were new memory pages created in the address space of the system process(es):

Process Name	Process Filename	Allocated Size
services.exe	%System%\services.exe	323,584 bytes
svchost.exe	%System%\svchost.exe	323,584 bytes
svchost.exe	%System%\svchost.exe	323,584 bytes
svchost.exe	%System%\svchost.exe	323,584 bytes

svchost.exe	%System%\svchost.exe	323,584 bytes
alg.exe	%System%\alg.exe	323,584 bytes

Notes:

%System% is a variable that refers to the System folder. By default, this is C:\Windows\System (Windows 95/98/Me), C:\Winnt\System32 (Windows NT/2000), or C:\Windows\System32 (Windows XP).

Registry Modifications

The newly created Registry Value is:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]

Lcxaxl = "%AppData%\Lcxaxl.exe"
