Re: Logon.dll? Possible root-kit?

Nick,

I downloaded the archive and went through it. 
Unfortunately, none of the information I asked about
was in the archive...Registry keys, results of
fport.exe, etc.  

Also, the web logs you included in the archive seem to
be selected for a specific reason.  Why is that?  What
did you expect them to show?  One shows a failed Nimda
scan.  

At this point, I don't know that decompiling the DLLs
are going to do much in the way of helping figure out
how this occurred, and what to do to prevent it in the
future.

Good luck

As some of you said, it looks like there is not a
rootkit installed, and it
looks like this was an attempt at making this box
join a botnet.  A kindly
IRCOp has offered to both decompile the bot dll, and
to remove the offending
channel (#thallia), so that is taken care of. 
Anyway, I did manage to
convince my clients that this was serious enough to
warant a wipe of the
data on the machine.  I am waiting to see what your
analysis of these files
are.

Thank You,
Nick Jacobsen
