It is a Trojan (a password stealer, downloader) which downloads an  
additional (exploit) component named "basesvc.dll" as mentioned by  
ThreatExpert on their blog. If you have a look at that file, it is  
pretty evident that it might (I haven't gotten that far with my  
analysis) exploit the vulnerability fixed with MS08-076 and thus may  
be used to spread the password stealing Trojan.
