MS saying that detects new variant as Backdoor:Win32/Kelihos.F. This sample detected as TrojanDownloader:Win32/Waledac.C, moreover Kespersky detects it as Trojan-FakeAV.Win32.SmartFortress2012.ml...
So, accordingly to Microsoft TrojanDownloader:Win32/Waledac.C can downloads Win32/Waledac and Winwebsec. I. e. Kaspersky verdict may be is a right but not quite.
In the Dambala blog don't mentioned MD5 of samples. So I don't know what it mean...
I don't think that this is new variant of Kelihos.
