Hotra Description:
Hotra monitors Internet browsing habits by
periodically sending the current URL (in Internet
Explorer) to a Web site that the Spyware
designates. Hotra is installed on the system when
you visit a Web site.
File name: hotdog.exe; extra.exe;
hotdogid.ini; extra_config_url.txt;
extra_notify_url.txt; config_url.txt;
notify_url.txt; lsetting.conf
When Hotra is executed, it does the following:
- Creates the value:
"Hotdog"="<path to
Spyware.Hotra>"
in the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
- Contacts a Web site to download
configuration information. (As of this
writing, these Web sites appear to be down.)
- After Spyware.Hotra obtains the
configuration information, it periodically
searches for an Internet Explorer window, from
which it steals the current URL and sends it
to a remote Web site.
