>>> W32/Vote-B / TROJ_VOTE.C

[Viruses & Worms] Sophos and Trend Micro report a "severe outbreak"
of a variant of day before yesterday's W32/Vote-A alias
Win32.Vote.A@mm, W32.Vote.A@mm, that deletes files from infected hard
drives.

It arrives in an email with the subject line Fwd: This War Must Be
Done ! The body of the email contains the text Hi We Must Fight , We
Must ReMemBer Our Victims! No Peace Before KiLLing TeRRoRists ! The
worm will be attached as the file ANTI_TERRORISM.EXE.

This variant works basically like its predecessor, just different
file names are being used and other messages are being displayed. ::
