There's plenty of info on Mcafee's sight as well as Symantics. If I

It modifies your registry, it creates a dll. Let's see, what else. It
will attempt to connect to some irc channel and will attempt to send
info about your machine to that channel.
I might have some of this stuff wrong, but that's as I recall it.
