This was lying around on my hard disk for some time, forgot about it. I think it's the version of Carbon Grabber which Mr. Stama describes in his article (released in August/October 2014). Also found the copy of a builder for the free version which unfortunately crashes during creation of payload. Haven't looked at it in detail and why it crashes.

TIMING-BASED EVASION
Timing-based evasion is probably the least evident technique in Rombertik’s behavior. According to Symantec, the malware writes the file “%SystemDrive%\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\[RANDOM CHARACTERS].vbs,” which ensures that its code will run every time Windows starts up. But not much is known beyond that, as most analyses have focused on Rombertik’s other evasive attributes.
I don't even want to comment this. Somebody kill this imbecile.
