We seem to be seeing an infection of the WORM_RBOT.TO worm, by examination of the DNS logs, we'rd finding DNS lookups 
for the Site  (gz.freetypers.us) that the worm then establishes an IRC connection too. 
 
What would be the best way to detect on this , an initial on the DNS lookup and then a positive on the IRC Connection?
