No, but I've seen a slow TCP 445 scan that took several hours to transit
half of a class C network. However, the scan originated from a single IP.
The source and destination port of all packets was 13000. Snort flagged the
packets as related to the Shaft DDOS tool. But, I suspect the current tool
merely shares code with Shaft.
