PandaLabs has warned of the spread of new BlackAngel worm. This worm spreads via MSN Messenger.

The virus sends messages to all contacts in the user’s contacts list, disguising itself as a video called ‘Fantasma’ (Ghost).

The virus code carries out several modifications to the system like closing different security applications.

It tries to close some windows so that the user cannot use operating system configuration tools. Such windows include:

– Windows Task Manager

– Control Panel

– Registry Editor

– System Configuration Utility

– System Restore.
