["Darren Windham" <dwindham () camozzi-usa com>]

I tried it on an unplugged machine and norton catches it as an IRC backdoor virus.

Hi there folks,
Twice in the past hour I have been messaged by two separate people on 
UnderNet.

The message goes:
:!Notice!: A Recent Port Scan on your Computer reveals that Port 1800 
is in open state. This usually means that you have been infected with 
an IRC Worm Virus. Please download the cleaner at: 
http://www.No-Hack.Us/Fixes/Worm1800.exe to remove the virus from 
your system. If you do not comply with this rule within 30 minutes, 
our client monitor will ban you from this network. -Thanks For 
Understanding. UNDERNet Exploit Team

The nicks have both been Under-XXX (where XXX is a different set of 
numbers).

For one, I know that port 1800 is not open however the file 
Worm1800.exe does not show up anything when scanned.

Both of the users that messaged me were on pacbell.net adsl

The domain no-hack.us was only registered 6 days ago.

I don't have the spare time or computer to have a further look into 
what this file actually does, has anyone come across this yet and 
know what it does or is anyone willing to investigate?
