    The worm has a dangerous payload. If the date is equal to 3 (3rd of February, 3rd of March, etc) and the worm’s UPDATE.EXE file is run, it destroys files with those extensions on all available drives:

    *.doc
    *.xls
    *.mdb
    *.mde
    *.ppt
    *.pps
    *.zip
    *.rar
    *.pdf
    *.psd
    *.dmp
