Just a guess. Sounds like the global identifier is generated at installation, tied to a license key, or perhaps even a unique file/system fingerprint. When saving/creating a word document, the identifier is embedded in the document. If the same identifier is found in documents for legitimate use and malicious use, one can associate the two identities. One could potentially get a few suspects by approximating the time the the virus appeared, then looking at ISP logs and server files to determine when and who uploaded it, and go from there. If it was a legitimate copy of word being used, could be even easier.
