W32.Spybot.Worm is a detection for a family of worms that spreads using KaZaA file sharing and mIRC. This worm can also spread to computers that are infected with common back door Trojan horses and network shares that make use of weak passwords.

W32.Spybot.Worm can perform different backdoor-type functions by connecting to a configurable IRC server and joining a specific channel to listen for instructions. This worm often includes key logging software as well as performing Denial of Service (DoS) attacks on various websites. Users should immediately change all passwords if this worm is found on their computer.
