The virus modifies values of the following system registry keys:

[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
DisableTaskMgr = 1
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
NoFolderOptions = 1

It also searches the hard disk partitions <snip> for files with an
".mp3" extension:
<snip>
These files wil then be deleted.
