W32.Marijuana

W32.Marijuana is a Windows platform worm that spreads via e-mail. On entering a machine, W32.Marijuana will harvest e-mail addresses from Microsoft Outlook. Then W32.Marijuana will attach a copy of itself to an e-mail with the subject heading "check this out!!!", and send the malicious e-mail to all the harvested e-mail addresses.

W32.Marijuana will also set the Internet Explorer home page to http://my.marijuana.com and change the Windows registered owner to "Im A Pot Head!", and the organization to "Stoner's Pot Palace". An icon of a marijuana leaf will be displayed in the system tray which pops up a message box, with a long statement about legalizing marijuana, once a user clicks on it.

Once a user has been successfully infected with W32.Marijuana, everyday at 16:20 it will display a message box with the title "The Marijuana Virus!!" and the message "It's 4:20, Time to toke up :)".
