Here's Symantec's write-up:

It's a mass mailer worm that can be isolated and disposed of rather quickly.  
The virus assesses the host drive and if it sees files from its 
pre-determined list, it displays a message, changes several settings on the 
machine, mails itself out to e-mail addresses it finds, and sends mail 
containing a partial list of the host's filenames to predefined targets.  
Nothing new from a technical point of view.
