The worm clearly exploits the LSASS overflow and is not spreading through
the FTP dameon left by Sasser.

Yesterday a large client of ours was taken down by what appears to be
a Korgo variant, but I have been unable to locate any information on
this worm.  From what we have discovered, the main process is
‘VDisp.exe’.  It is spreading through unpatched systems vulnerable to
the LSASS exploit, and propagates itself through a serious of randomly
chosen ports.

Korgo exploits a buffer overflow within FTP daemon installed by Sasser.
That would mean your client systems were previously infected by
Sasser...
