The Workbook_Open macro executes a command to download a second-stage payload from 'http://3.64.251.139/v11/FTL_0013575222060doc.exe' to 'C:\Users\Public\Documents\dinneryour.exe'. It also creates a temporary command file 'C:\Users\Public\Documents\heavyprevent.cmd' which contains the download and execution command. The GetObject call is used to execute the downloaded payload.
