The file is a macro-enabled Excel document detected by ClamAV as Doc.Malware.Valyria-10004384-0. The Workbook_Open macro is present and uses CreateObject to execute a batch file named 'jledshf.bat' and a VBScript named 'sduoixo.vbs' from the 'c:\programdata\' directory. The VBScript appears to be a downloader for multiple URLs, including 'http://reumatismclinic.com/--/scCn3mbJRp8bKbrC/'. The VBA script also contains obfuscated strings that appear to be URLs, which are likely used for payload delivery.
