The following is what I found at McAfee Labs.... http://beta.nai.com/public/stand_alone/class-info.htm
Class.D Virus
On the first infection it will drop an exported copy of the virus code in an ascii file c:\class.sys. When working with the infected files on the 14TH of the month and the current month is not January through April, a message box like
|- Class.Poppy -|
I Think " (word97 reg. User name) " is a big stupid jerk!
| OK |
is displayed. Also this virus modifies the RegisteredOwner and RegisteredOrganization values in the registry at the following location-
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion
RegisteredOwnder="VicodinES/VB/TNN"
RegisteredOrganization="-(Dr. Diet Mountain Dew)-"

Subject: [PCSOFT] Virus Infection
I was checking a few items on my computer and went into Control Panel/
System. My computer is registered to: "VicodinES/CB/TNN", next line is,
"-(Dr. Diet Mountain Dew)-". VicodinES is the name of a well known virus
writer according to today's San Diego Union Tribune.
I'm aware of the Melissa virus and haven't opened anything with "important
message" as far as I know. I've tried without success to get an update from
McAfee online as I have their anti-virus software. Any suggestions?
