NOTES:

This worm arrives on the system as an AutoLISP script bundled with a .DWG drawing file. Once the drawing file is opened, AutoCAD then loads and executes this malware.

Upon execution, it loads a certain AutoLISP script, acadapq.lsp. If the folder where the file base.dcl does not contain acaddoc.lsp it copies itself to the folder where the file base.dcl is, as acadiso.lsp. If the folder where the current drawing file exists does not contain acadiso.lsp, it copies itself to the folder where the current drawing file is aacadiso.lsp.
