Acebot, also known as Worm.Win32.Newbiero.04, is a network worm that creates a backdoor through which a hacker can control your PC. Acebot spreads over open network shares. When it is executed, it will configure Windows to automatically run Acebot on startup. It will then connect to an IRC channel in order to receive commands from a remote attacker. This worm is designed to pass through several commercial firewall programs without detection. This worm is extremely dangerous, as it allows access to any sensitive personal and financial data stored on your PC.
