    This W32.APost.A@mm worm needs "MSVBVM60.dll" for spreading from one computer system to another otherwise this worm shows the dynamic link library missing error. It is clear from the above reply that this W32.APost.A@mm worm spreads through the email address. The attachment of the infected email comes with the name of “Readme.exe”. The subject and the body of the email are randomly selected by the W32.APost.A@mm worm.

    You have deleted this W32.APost.A@mm worm from your computer system but it comes again and again because this W32.APost.A@mm worm changes the registry key value so that it can launch at the time of restart. Hence if you delete this W32.APost.A@mm worm it will definitely come back because of the registry key.
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
    "macrosoft":="C:\Windows\readme.exe"
    W32.APost.A@mm worm changes the above registry key. If you have the registry key knowledge you can delete this W32.APost.A@mm worm manually.

    After this W32.APost.A@mm worm enters your computer system it will open a dialogue box with the title “Urgent” and a button named “Open”. If the user clicks on the “Open” the worm infects the system again and the displays the false error message with the new title “WinZip SelfExtrator: Warning” and the error message CRC error: 234#21. And at the last it opens the Address book of Microsoft Outlook. After collecting the email address from the Address book it send the infected messages to all the email address.
