The mutant was distributed among end-users, and some of them even installed
it.
The cause for writing it is the decree of the Bulgarian Committee for Post
and telecommunications to license ISPs. More details about it can be seen at
http://www.isoc.bg/kpd/ (there's an English version, too).

I already said publicly here, that such a "reaction" is causing problems to
Infotel, but not to the people who created the decree.

We have discovered two mutants to the ie0199.exe trojan.

In the first mutant, the targetted host was hpns.infotel.bg, rather than
www.infotel.bg.  It seems to look at only a handful of well known sockets.

The second mutant is more malicious.  It generates random IP addresses in
the 212.39 and 195.138 address spaces, with socket numbers in a range of
1-199.

Neither mutant touched the sndvol32.exe file.

Someone really has it out for infotel.bg.
