If the user runs it, it doesn't seem to do anything, however it silently becomes present in the operating computer's memory and triggers a payload at random times which shows a full-screen picture of a ghost girl, similar but not the same as [[McDonalds.exe]], with a scream sound effect.

=='''Madoka.exe'''==
A similar version of this application exists, called [[Madoka.exe]]. Both programs seem to do the same things and launched in the same period, but they have a different screamer picture, in addition, the only thing the application will do is display a picture of an eyeless ghostly Japanese woman in fullscreen, accompanied by the same scream, before disappearing. Some Chinese text is then displayed in the upper-left corner of the screen, Madoka.exe is a variant of Win32/FlaGhost Malware, there are no download links to the application
