RE: Tool to remotely detect MBlaster infected machines?

The original question asked about looking for infected machines, not vulnerable machines.

Unfortunately, you can't scan for infected machines, because they take down port 135. You could theoretically scan for 
port 69 or 4444 open on infected machines, those are only open for a short period of time.

However, for scanning for the vulnerability, ISS shipped a freeware tool:

It quickly scans a class B.

You can also use Nessus plugin Check 11818 The remote host is infected by 
msblast.exe

If you need to scan more then one class C at a time you could use the 
Tenable Lightning Console and Proxy to Scan multiple class B's at the same 
time.

It is a good tool, but has the drawback of only doing 1 class c at a
time.

"RetinaRPCDCOM.exe" which is free.

Does anyone know of a tool to remotely detect mblast infected 
machines?  We
are checking machines with increased flows on 135 and traffic on 69 
udp.  Is
there a better way?

Thanks,
Brad
