We are observing a large number of invalid DNS response packets being sent
TO our web server.  Is it possible that your colleague was describing this
problem?

Subject: New worm attacking MS DNS servers?

Hi there,

        I've just had a call from a colleage saying he's heard talk of a
worm which strips certain records (he mentioned MX) from Microsoft DNS
servers?

        Has anyone heard of this?

        Regards,
