Got this from Trend early this morning.

Dear Everyone,

This is to inform you that we have received many inquiries about
WORM_OPASOFT.A from Japan and Taiwan

Short Description:

This network worm propagates via network shared C:\ drives. 
It also has backdoor capabilities, downloading executable applications,
possibly malicious, from a specific site. It may then execute the downloaded
programs. 
At this time of analysis, the download site is blocked or is currently down.

This worm also scans for the computer name and domain name of machines
connected to the network and then sends this information to the download
site.
