I'd guess someone is compiling a list of target IPs for future use;
SQL Server can be a valuable target, and misconfigured proxies could
be used to masquerade an attack.

WinAmp leaves me baffled. Maybe someone can answer that part of the
equation.


Often people with cable or dsl download a lot of mp3's because the bandwith is available.
Perhaps also waiting for a winamp hole to surface for use with ddos nets? Perhaps one
already exists which isn't known?
