We are seeing 2 wide spread worms right now, mydoom and dumaru.* NAI has info at http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_100983.htm and http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_100980.htmThey rate of it is quite surprising. By the description, the trick / method of infection does not seem all that different than past worms viri. Makes me wonder how many people in a room would reach into their purse/pocket on hearing, "Wallet inspector"

my copies (500 or so, before i filtered) are in a ~7MB gzip'd mailbox file called http://sa.vix.com/~vixie/mailworm.mbox.gz (plz don't fetch that unless you need it for comparison or analysis). there's a high degree of splay in the smtp/tcp peer address, and the sender is prepared to try backup MX's if the primary rejects it, though it appears to try the MX's in priority order.
