Looks like exploit code for the Ipswitch overflow.

I've corresponded with another person who saw scans similar to mine
followed by directed attacks at Ipswitch servers on his network.  So it
appears that the scans are id'ing potential victims and are followed by
exploit code to attempt the breakin.

Pretty typical stuff.
