The AutoOpen macro in the VBA script saves a copy of the document as 'C:\Windows\Kodak.doc' and creates a script file 'C:\script.drv'. This script file is then copied to various mIRC script directories, likely to facilitate further malicious activity or communication. The script also attempts to modify Word security settings to allow macros. The ClamAV detection of 'Win.Trojan.Psycho-3' and 'Doc.Trojan.Adok-1' further supports the malicious nature of this document.
