W97M_Dloader.BYO is a macro virus that arrives on an affected system embedded in a Microsoft Word .DOC file, which may either be dropped by other malware or downloaded unknowingly by a user when visiting malicious Web sites.
Affected users may then execute the said .DOC file without knowledge of its malicious intent.
Once the said .DOC file is opened, it executes a hardcoded macro virus that drops a file named MWCHEU.EXE in the Root folder. The said file is detected by Trend Micro as TROJ_DLOADER.BYO.
