Zircon.c spreads via e-mail in the form of an e-mail message with the attachment "patch.exe". The message subject field may contain in English the word "Important" or one of seventeen variations in Japanese. Which subject one receives depends on the recipient's e-mail address. If an address ends with ".jp" the worm uses a subject written in Japanese, while all others receive the line "Important".
