VIRUS INFO
Due to increased media attention and inquiries from the readership of Shorty's Anti-Virus Mailing list, I am issuing this virus warning.
This particular worm tries to infect users of the Gnutella network (a file sharing internet utility). Gnutella searches other users computers in the network based on search criteria that you establish by typing in keywords.
If a computer on the network that you are searching is infected with this worm, it will display itself using the keywords that you specify. For example, if you search for dog food by typing in the keywords 'dog' and 'food' the worm will offer itself in the form of an EXE file named 'dog food.exe'
Upon downloading and running the infected file a new file will be created in your startup menu by the name of 'gspot.exe' with 8192 bytes.
