[ATOM WordMacro Virus Information]
----------------------------------------------------
WordMacro/ATOM
ATOM consists of 4 macros - AutoOpen, FileOpen,
FIleSaveAs, and ATOM - all of which are
execute-only.
When an infected document is opened, ATOM infects
the global template. If the auto macros are
disabled, the virus is rendered ineffective. ATOM
does not turn off the prompting when saving the
global template, so if prompting is turned on you
will be prompted to save changes to the global
template at the end of the session.
After the global template is infected, ATOM calls
its first destructive payload. If the current date
is December 13, the virus deletes all files in the
current directory.
Once the virus is active (i.e., it has infected the
global template), it infects all documents which are
saved via the FileSaveAs command or which are opened
via the FileOpen command. If the seconds field of
the current time is 13 at the time of infection ,
the virus encrypts the document being saved with the
password "ATOM#1".
WordMacro/ATOM is not known to be in the wild.
