- C:\winnt\system32\wmon16.exe appeared and began running (no idea what it 
is or does)
- hosts file was altered to redirect antivirus sites to 127.0.0.1 (similar 
to Trojan.QHOST but nothing else matches
- disables antivirus
- creates lots of connections to network computers using microsoft-ds and 
netbios ports

Might be a variant of Ago/Gao-bot. Could you provide the executable ?

Your sincerely,

Peter Kosinar
