From Nuwar, With Love

With Christmas and New Year behind us, it’s not only shops getting ready for Valentine’s Day but Nuwar (a.k.a. Storm) as well. You may receive a Valentine-themed E-mail with subject like “I Dream of you”, “For You….My Love”, “Sending You My Love”, etc. etc. and the body text prompting you to click on a typical Nuwar-style link of http://some.numeric.address . If the link is followed, the user is presented with a page similar to this:

Nuwar 'with love'

Clicking on the link on that page, or at the image of the heart, will lead to a download of with_love.exe which is, of course, a new variation of Nuwar.
