RE: Which worm?

Hi Bob,

There are several variants of Agobot/Gaobot that are
propagating via the MyDoom/Novarg backdoor.

I've found that most of the samples I've captured
are damaged and won't run.  Try scanning them with the
RAV Antivirus online scanner.  It seems to do a good
job of identifying these things even the damaged ones.

Also, don't forget to delete the first 5 bytes off 
the capture to remove the file upload and execute 
handshake before scanning it.

The other night I decided to see what traffic I could capture 
on tcp port 
3127 (MyDoom backdoor) since I have been getting a lot of 
connection attemps 
showing up in my firewall logs.
I got several dumps of the traffic using
nc -l -p 3127 > out.dmp
most of them are around 10-20kB which I thought was the about 
the right size 
of most of the worms and backdoors using that port. But one 
of the dumps I 
got was 150kB and I was just wondering if anyone could tell 
me what I might 
be?
