this is a practice worm. this aint the real thing. act like this one is
really bad and treat your network like it's the real worm that should be
here in a couple of days.

i agree, random ip, tftp slow, this thing is inefficient. someone out
there is working on the efficient one. use this as your dry run.


They found a worm, but since it uses tftp servers that
can be taken down and since tftp is slow, it shouldnt
have much of an effect.

"Scans sequentially for machines with open port 135,
starting at a presumably random IP address" - very
stupid way to spread!
