I-Worm.Nevezed (aka Never)
Nevezed is a worm virus spreading via Microsoft Outlook. The worm itself is a Java Script file about 4KB in size and written in Java.
Installation
During installation the worm copies itself to the Windows system StartUp directory under the name "StartUp.js" and the Windows System directory under the name "CmdWsh32.js". It then registers this later file in the system registry as a java-class file. The worm also creates a backup copy of itself in the root directory of other drives.
Spreading: Email
To send infected messages the worm uses MS Outlook to send messages to all the addresses found in a victim's Outlook address book.
Infected messages sent by the worm have various subject titles. Possible
