QAZ

QAZ is a network worm. The worm disguises itself as Notepad.exe and spreads by scanning for shared drives on the network, which increases network traffic. It also reportedly sends the IP address of the infected machine back to the creator of the worm, who can then gain access to the computer through the worm.
