The sample contains a Workbook_Open VBA macro that leverages Wscript.Shell to execute commands. The macro attempts to download and execute a second-stage payload from a series of concatenated URLs. The reconstructed URL is "http://santetortilla.com/_baks/tUX9/http://donbaha.com/Home_files/YS0PazYeraes/,http://barnhart-studies.com/eln-images/Vggh1ng/http://blut.com/3dtech/jLu8IANnj3gK9WC/,http://zenzebra.net/plath/9Q0DBle/,http://realcourp.net/PhotoGallery/Uw mRHceSGbaCeGF/,http://miniflam.com/eln-images/fSwbQjUMAfGdw/,http://marezdecor.com/MarezGallery/sEQxWtpMJ7A8rAtY/". It also drops two files, 'yhjlswle.vbs' and 'ughldskbhn.bat', to the c:\programdata directory.
