Dlder Description:
Dlder is a spyware program that submits
Internet usage information to a server. It will
also submit personal information, such as an IP
address, the Web browser used, and a Global
Unique Identifier (GUID). This spyware program
must be manually installed. However, there are
several known applications that have Dlder within
them, and that install the spyware component as
the program itself is installed.
When Dlder was installed in the test lab, it
displayed several characteristics that are
similar to those of backdoor Trojan Horses.
When the installer of Dlder is executed, it does
the following.
- Does not display information on the screen.
- Creates several files and registry keys on
the system.
- Attempts to download an additional file.
The main file of this Spyware component is
Dlder.exe, which was inserted as a hidden file in
the \Windows folder.
When the installer executes this spyware, it
attempts to contact the site www.2001-007.com and
download a file named Explorer.exe to a hidden
folder in the \Windows folder, named
"Explorer" (not to be confused with the
Microsoft file, Explorer.exe, in the Windows
folder). It is this downloaded Explorer.exe that
contains the main functionality of this spyware
application.
When this spyware component runs, it constantly
submits Internet usage statistics to a server.
This information includes the GUID, IP address,
and the Web sites that have been visited since
the last usage submission by Dlder.
