I've gotten a sample from the distributor's site. As yet, I have not run across a second version. From preliminary analysis it looks like the worm picked up the SIS writing trick from Cabir. The boot up trick is defective, but the run on install is correct.
Vallez, author of Cabir, originally decided against using MMS as Bluetooth involves no direct monetary charges. This worm's author must not want the worm to spread very far.
