As for the code, have you tried catching the bug with a honeypot? I
heard of people using netcat listening on port 3127 to catch the bug...

To be honest, I didn't expect this to work, but before I left my
office last night I decided I may as well try it.  To my great
surprise, I came in this morning and found that I had "caught one"
within minutes of opening the port.  Quite im(de?)pressive.


 I've done that and after 12 hours I had about 27 files. 8 of them
were unique both in size and content. I've identified the one that drops
the .tbz with source code but that leaves me with another 7 different
files. Question is, how many things are out there piggybacking on
mydoom's backdoor? And now the source code is public many more
will emerge in the next few days...
