Troj/Agent-AANA is a Trojan that proliferates to targeted PCs via malicious emails supposedly sent by the DCU (Digital Crimes Unit) of Microsoft. The bogus Microsoft DCU email dispersing Troj/Agent-AANA has the subject 'Security' and tells the affected computer user addressed as 'Dear E-mail User' that because of one fresh security flaw that cybercriminals are exploiting for obtaining his/her Internet credentials, Microsoft DCU this year (2013) has made one fresh security utility. All web and Microsoft users need to affirm the details about personal email accounts despite what ISP alternatively host company they're using. The affirmation can be done via downloading an attached file particularly 'Microsoft_STF', found as Troj/Agent-AANA, unzipping it on the victim's desktop and viewing it. The spam Microsoft DCU email announces that this will then list the computer owner in the security databank of Microsoft and asks the recipient to note that in case of non-affirmation of email accounts, cybercriminals may compromise his/her work or private email and, thus, gain access into his/her privileged/classified information.
