  The sadmind/IIS worm won't do anything lika that: it just adds {index,default}.{asp,htm}
files all over the place.

  But the same hole can be (and has been) used for more 'manual' intrusions,
which, of course, provides for more opportunities for action.

  The one I've seen was very obvious in the WWW logs once you started looking
for it. If the logs are still intact, you might try looking for any invocation
of WINNT/system32/TFTP.EXE or NC.EXE
