  New variants of Storm Worm have started to use kernel-mode rootkit techniques to hide their files, registry keys and active network connections. F-Secure BlackLight is able to detect the hidden files.
  
  
  
  These variants are now detected as W32/Stormy.AB and Trojan-Downloader.Win32.Agent.bet.
