I've just finished cleaning up an outbreak of the 1575 (15xx) virus.
I understand this is a fairly old virus, and while it was a new
breakout here, it seems to have been a delayed outbreak from another
educational site.

Anyway, by what mechanism is this virus spread.  I found compressed
(lzexe) files which were infected, and tons of executeables.  However,
I have yet to find anything which I could identify as the original
source.

Information in this regards would be of help.  Thanks
