AW: attacks shutting down windows machines?

Are they getting the windows shut down prompt? If so I would suggest
that they aren't patched against the RPC DCOM vul and are infected or
even if they aren't getting a prompt I think it's still 
highly possible

Yes, it looks very much like the worm. However, someone here mentioned that
it takes about 1 min. for windos to crash (can't they do even that right? :)
).
What we are seing are very rapid reboots, at most 20 seconds.


I'll put it on the worm for now.
