Re: Yet Another Nimda Thread (YANT)

Are you asking whether anyone has seen a lack of the scans in their own netblock (ie: 128.122), or in everything inclusive of that netblock (ie: 128)?

I found a really cool script from this guy Bryan Andersen on one of the newsgroups, that tests for how many pokes you've seen from the Nimda worm, and as of 2:00pm yesterday, I haven't seen any from inside our own. See below:

Column i represents .ida requests on our network, column /16 is our network representing a Nimda file request and you know the rest from there.

I don't know whether to be happy, of whether to be in fear of the storm to come...

I heard there were a few reports of Nimda going completely quiet in certain
netblocks, but none were substantiated.  I haven't seen a single Nimda IIS
exploit attempt since a little before 10 AM (EST).  I checked my IDS, apache
logs, IIS logs -- nothing.  Seems like it went silent.  Still seeing CodeRed
though. Can any one correlate?  I am somewhere in the 12.27 netblock :)
