This one seems to run on UNIX (specifically redhat linux
I've tried), forks in the background as in.inetd, attaches to
port 3001 and listens for incoming connections, then tries
to contact via tcp  208.139.192.34 (ns.netinfo.com) on port
23911 with the new victim's information.

Security professionals,

I recently talked to someone who was bragging that this is on [so-far]
thousands of computers world-wide. He says this is a leaf that connects to
a hub, similar to past ddos tools. This is new, and all or most of you
have never seen this before. Partners of 14x Network Security have been
looking this over, and tracking down the person responsible for the
attacks. We already know one person that is distributing it widely, and
are hoping to track it to the source.

I am releasing the binary to you all to look at, it would be interesting
to hear what you all think about it.
