Subject: AMDPatchB & InstallStub

Might be a variant of W32/Gaobot.  This worm connects to an IRC server
on TCP port 9900.  Looking at the Auth/Ident response from the server it
looks like  an IRC server.

At one of our Computers with Internet Access, I found a strange
program
running. 
amdpatchB.exe(38 KB)

This program is trying to get Internet Access while starting.
amdpatchB.exe is connecting 63.246.134.50:9900.
There is a text based protocol running on 63.246.134.50 at a service on
port
9900.
See Telnet output:

I used Google to look for this filename but got no result.
Any ideas what this is?
