Old News, what most of us are waiting for is the next sobig variant that
will come out after sept 10. Some have said that it will be out on the 11th
but I think that was just the AV vendors hyping things up (read Symantec,
NAI etc ) the smaller ones are more accurate. 

For info on the 2nd part go to sophos or something like that they have
documented it quite well.

it seems all the "contact list" machines were disconnected from the
Internet about an hour before "come and get it" time.  One hopes this
was done cluefully after certain important forensic evidence had been
appropriately gathered, or at least was known to then be present on the
machines and the machines were suitably secured for forensic analysis.

Has anyone heard anything more about that second stage; whether any of it 
was recovered, what it was supposed to be?  I can't find anyone talking 
about it; I thought this would be big news.
