It can definitely hit the english version. In the last 12 hours I've 
seen 6 machines (running the US english version) that have become 
infected with the worm.

I've read practically everything about this worm that has been
released. But there are a few questions that I have. First off, I
know the first exploit was written by hsj and it used the offsets for
the japanesse version of IIS. Now in this new worm, has the code been
modified with US (or other) offsets to attack english versions? I
have already had a call regarding a possible "break in attempt." with
very little other information. I would like to be able to them either
they are vulnerable to this worm or not. Thank you, w1re
