| Description:
|
MoneyTree is an ActiveX control used to download premium-rate dialers, generally for porn sites. Each time MoneyTree is run, on system startup, it tries to connect to a pornographic website.
MonyeTree is loaded by ActiveX drive-by-download in pages operated by mtree (domains such as mtreexxx.nl), which are often redirected to by pop-up advertisements, 404 pages at porn hosts and misspelled domains.
MonyeTree may also install a Browser helper Object (BHO).
MonyeTree may also use direct EXE file downloads to distribute the same dialers; this process does not leave an ActiveX control loaded.
MoneyTree variants:
MoneyTree/NSUpdate: installs nsupdate.dll and NSupd9x.inf in the Downloaded Program Files folder.
MoneyTree/NSLite: installs nslite.dll and nslite.inf in the Downloaded Program Files folder.

MoneyTree/DyFuCA: installs dyfuca.ocx and dyfuca.inf in the Downloaded Program Files folder. This variant typically installs the InternetOptimizer parasite. The DyFuCA variant typically installs the InternetOptimizer threat which is an error page hijacker for Internet Explorer.
