Does anyone recognize this pattern of a TCP connect scan, then 65 GETs?
Note that it also included:  "User-Agent:.Mozilla/3.0.
(compatible;.Indy.Library)...."

I don't know the tool, but I have seen a similar and possibly related scan before.

- Indy.Library in user-agent
- Nimda-like directory traversal attempts
- Looks for shell.exe and root.exe and cmd.exe

Mine appeared to come from a Windows box, so I don't think it's a NIX only tool.
