W32/Magistr.24876@mm is a polymorphically encrypted, entry point-obscuring, anti-heuristic, anti-debugging, memory resident, parasitic infector of Portable Executable .EXE and .SCR files. It can replicate across local area networks, and it has mass-mailing capabilities (using its own SMTP engine), some highly destructive payloads, an interesting visual effect and a number of bugs.
