Rumor on the internets: New worm that utilizes wifi as the method of
transmission. Only affects unpatched windows boxen, those fully
patched with latest security updates are not vulnerable. After
infection is sets the WiFi card to Ad-Hoc mode with SSID aec_le and
starts requesting DHCP leases, penetrating unpatched machines in its
wake.

I for one am lollin hard.
